What do I actually do at Lockheed Martin?

Most of my friends and family have given up asking me what I do at work because I was basically locked up in a giant safe for almost 11 years. "I could tell you but then I would have to kill you." was the usual joke. Anyway, I've moved onto a new program where I can discuss some of the things I work on for my job. Yippie.

So, what do I do? Well, I deal with Information Assurance and System Security. Well, that probably didn't help much so here it is in Laymen terms. I deal with everything from locks on doors, keeping those pesky hackers out to super technical 256 bit encryption. Encryption?

Anyway, I come by some really interesting things not and then. Check out the Youtube video on Social Engineering. It is a kind of like a real life Jedi mind trick, however this is a real threat.
