National Security: Document Storage and Transport
I’ve noticed that the Berger document handling affair has been bringing howls of derision and humorous notes all over one side of the blogosphere.
As a person who has to safeguard classified information, I assure you that document security is no laughing matter. To explain and inform, I’ve found an old training film that shows how to safeguard information in a proper manner.
Please watch, as it may provide useful information in these troubled times. The large file is best, as you might need to see the captions on the instruction slides.

AllahPundit told me that it just gets better. He was right. Also via Allah, this bit of blogger reportage. Claiming inside information, he says that Gartergate is much worse than has been reported so far. Is what he says true?…

Chap,
I know this is WAAY off topic, but, I’ve got the impression you have experience/interest in systems integration/data use.
