    00:00:00.230 --> 00:00:06.590
>> OK. My name is James Goldsmith and I'm an
information technology security specialist.

    00:00:06.590 --> 00:00:12.210
I work at Navy Research Lab as a
contractor from Tekla Research.

    00:00:12.210 --> 00:00:17.820
So, my role at Navy Research
Lab is quite diverse.

    00:00:17.820 --> 00:00:26.650
One of the aspects of the objects that I perform
is security defense or security specialist

    00:00:26.650 --> 00:00:34.610
for computers in the next
defendable arena, if you will.

    00:00:34.610 --> 00:00:41.360
So, I take a computer and they
create a new facet or software

    00:00:41.360 --> 00:00:45.200
for the future and then I try to break that.

    00:00:45.200 --> 00:00:49.040
And then through breaking it, we can
discover how to make it stronger so that

    00:00:49.040 --> 00:00:56.310
when it gets implemented or deployed to the
services, they're able to actually use it

    00:00:56.310 --> 00:01:02.430
without being hacked or corrupted
through other means.

    00:01:02.430 --> 00:01:07.640
So, through computer hardening, we
assess the different vulnerabilities

    00:01:07.640 --> 00:01:12.590
that the computer may have and
then we try to lock that down

    00:01:12.590 --> 00:01:17.580
at the same time allowing enough operations
for the scientist to continue his research.
