HUNTSVILLE, Alabama— Nine months ago, the 4th Infantry Division’s commander told an audience that he would be perfectly happy to take a piece of tech that does 60 percent of what the Army needs and let his soldiers’ feedback inform the remaining 40. On Wednesday, he said he’d like to switch those ratios.
Gen. Pat Ellis and his soldiers have been helping the Army develop its next-generation command-and-control software as the service tries out its new approach to acquisition, taking existing technology and putting it into the field as developers stand by to integrate soldier feedback.
“We'll go 40 percent,” Ellis said at the AUSA Global Force Symposium. “We don't want the product to be perfect. The soldiers actually want to be active participants in the development process.”
That approach wouldn’t necessarily work everywhere, he added, but it makes sense for software development at least.
The Army is doing something similar with its M1E3 Abrams tank and XM-30 Mechanized Infantry Combat Vehicle: delivering the bones of the vehicles to soldiers, whose feedback will inform what they need in terms of software, sensors and weapons.
It’s a drastic departure from the Army’s past acquisitions model, which involved long lists of requirements and a “black eye” if a company didn’t deliver exactly what the Army had asked for, the service’s Portfolio Acquisition Executive for C2/counter-C2 said.
“And so a test report that may say that it's not effective or effective with limitations, I mean, this was a significant emotional event for a lot of programs, and I think we've really kind of like short-circuited that,” Joe Welch said.
There’s no longer an expectation of perfection out of the gate, Welch added, and the Army is working hard with vendors to communicate that an offering that still needs work is no longer going to put them out of the running.
“In fact, you know, as you just heard, there's a preference that it's that it's not,” Welch said. “Because perfect, in some ways, means that, well, then you're done iterating on it. You're done making it better.”
During 4th ID’s Ivy Sting series to test out NGC2, Ellis said, he has convened so-called “solution summits” to talk about challenges and next steps with soldiers, vendors and even potential vendors.
“We bring everybody in and say, let's talk about this problem. Some folks are on the contract. Some folks are not,” he said. “We just talk about, ‘Hey, look, we've done airspace management, we've done chat functionality, we've done maps, we've had a lot of these challenges that we're seeing.’ And this lets everybody kind of talk about and kind of hear where the industry partners will go in that space.”

A new cybercriminal service called “Leak Bazaar” has surfaced on the Russian-speaking TierOne forum, advertised on March 25, 2026, by a user known as Snow of SnowTeam. Unlike traditional data leak sites, Leak Bazaar introduces a more structured approach to monetizing stolen corporate data, focusing on processing and refining information rather than simply publishing it.

VoidLink is a new Linux rootkit family that combines classic kernel modules with eBPF to hide processes and network activity deep inside modern cloud environments. It targets distributions from CentOS 7 up to Ubuntu 22.04, giving attackers a stealthy way to persist across a wide range of kernel versions. VoidLink is part of a broader […]

SAN FRANCISCO — American society is becoming increasingly apathetic to major cyberattacks, and the U.S. has still not achieved a hardline strategy to deter foreign adversaries and their hacker operatives, former NSA and Cyber Command leaders said Tuesday.
“I think we’ve become numb to it,” said retired Gen. Paul Nakasone, who served as director of Cyber Command and NSA from 2018 to 2024. He was joined on stage at an RSAC Conference discussion with other retired officials who held the dual-hatted role over the years, including Gen. Keith Alexander, Adm. Mike Rogers and, most recently, Gen. Tim Haugh.
“I think we continue to see these different intrusions, and intrusions have gotten to a size that the scale is just incredible to me” Nakasone said. “And I think that we are out of balance in terms of being able to keep up with the adversary, whether or not it’s ransomware, whether or not it’s deepfakes, whether or not it’s the brain drain within our government.”
“I think for society, we are just becoming so numb to this,” said Rogers. “We’re starting to accept this, in some ways, as the price of living in the digital age, and we have not yet had a level of trauma that has driven fundamental behavioral change.”
The sobering remarks underscore a growing concern among former U.S. cyber leaders that the steady drumbeat of high-impact cyber intrusions has failed to galvanize a proportional policy or societal response.
Recent incidents highlight that threat picture, from China-linked hackers like Volt Typhoon embedding in U.S. critical infrastructure systems and Salt Typhoon targeting global telecom networks for espionage, to ongoing disruptions at home, including a March breach at medical device maker Stryker that’s been tied to a pro-Iran hacker gang.
“I would definitely say we have not achieved deterrence,” Rogers said. “I see a private sector, network owners, that are very energized and focused. I see a government that’s unwilling to expend political capital to really drive fundamental change in cyber, and it’s a reflection of the fact that, politically, we are so divided. And as a society, we are so divided.”
Alexander reinforced the same worry over a lack of national readiness against major cyber players.
“What I’m concerned about is what we’re doing as a nation to think about what China could do to hurt us,” he said.
The Trump White House has released a long-anticipated national cyber strategy, which includes a pillar focused on reshaping the behavior of cyber adversaries to create incentives to not target U.S. networks. Details of that effort remain to be seen, though the private sector is expected to play a major part.
