  • “Cloud First”: To move federal agencies to the cloud, the government created a program known as FedRAMP, whose job was to ensure the security of new technology.
  • Security Breakdown: ProPublica found that FedRAMP authorized a Microsoft product called GCC High to handle sensitive government data, despite years of concerns about its security.
  • Potential Conflict of Interest: The government relies, in part, on third-party firms to vet cloud technology, but those firms are hired and paid by the company being assessed.

I’m fixing this - no LLM, no chatbot, all on-prem data sovereignty with reinforcement learning that uses less cpu than a browser.

We’re negotiating with a huge energy provider now, but I really want to get into election security- as long as it’s not for the current admin or another shit fuck dem that won’t do anything.
