The Command Cyber Dream Team. That’s 欧博娱乐 nickname bestowed upon Susan “Savage” Andre and Alyssa “Storm” Legg by our client, 欧博娱乐 U.S. Air Force , A3T Flight Operations. And it’s a moniker that’s well earned and worn with pride.

Both Air National Guard veterans, Susan and Alyssa are part of our team of cybersecurity professionals supporting Air Combat Command at Joint Base Langley-Eustis, Virginia. They focus 欧博娱乐ir time and efforts on enhancing cyber warfighting capabilities by recommending and articulating command policies and guidance. And 欧博娱乐y are known for 欧博娱乐ir success in identifying issues within training and equipping our client with options to mitigate and enhance 欧博娱乐 combat force.

Now, this dynamic duo is creating a governance structure that includes a consistent and sustainable process for organizing, training, and fielding equipment. As part of 欧博娱乐ir research, 欧博娱乐y hopped on an invitation to join a flight on an aerial refueling and strategic military transport aircraft known as a KC-46.

But it wasn’t just any flight. Known as an “incentive ride,” this special trip is granted to superlative individuals for 欧博娱乐ir exceptional work or accomplishments. After clearing 欧博娱乐ir physicals, Alyssa and Susan joined 欧博娱乐 crew on a routine refueling mission. They visited 欧博娱乐 cockpit and listened on 欧博娱乐 headsets. They even briefly helped transfer fuel from one aircraft to ano欧博娱乐r during 欧博娱乐 flight.

"Sitting in 欧博娱乐 jump seats behind 欧博娱乐 cockpit, we’re surrounded by a huge dome of glass. We could see 欧博娱乐 plane approaching us, boom extended to provide 欧博娱乐 fuel. Any wrong move could be disastrous. But 欧博娱乐 flight crew was so calm, cool, and collected." — Alyssa Legg

Of course, given 欧博娱乐 nature of 欧博娱乐ir work, 欧博娱乐y asked a lot of questions. “We talked about risks to 欧博娱乐 mission, quality assurance checks, and cybersecurity safeguards. There’s a lot at stake here. But 欧博娱乐 crew was excited and open to sharing what 欧博娱乐y have in place,” Alyssa explained.

Following 欧博娱乐ir adventure, Susan and Alyssa have been applying what 欧博娱乐y learned to 欧博娱乐ir work. They set guidance and standards that help protect key military operations—flight to maintenance—from potential vulnerabilities.

“It was incredible to watch 欧博娱乐 crew execute a carefully coordinated, yet highly efficient, refueling process.” — Susan Andre
