Devices that used to be dumb are becoming “smart.” Internet-connected phones, watches, refrigerators, vehicles, heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems make life more convenient. They also put us at risk. The introduction of all of this technology creates vulnerabilities that didn’t exist 20 years ago. This is great news for cyber criminals such as hackers and scammers.

AF prepares for all MQ-9 force
For the past 21 years the Air Force has flown the remotely piloted MQ-1 Predator in combat, and for the last 10, the MQ-9 Reaper. Combined with a skilled aircrew, these aircraft provide consistent support in daily engagements making an impact downrange. While the MQ-1 has provided many years of service, the time has come for the Air Force to fly the more capable MQ-9 exclusively, and retire the MQ-1 in early 2018 to keep up with the continuously evolving battlespace environment.
