JOINING ME EXECUTIVE CHAIRMEN
AND YORK SPACE SYSTEMS
EXECUTIVE CHAIRMEN CHARLES, I
WANT TO ASK YOU ABOUT THIS
STORY BECAUSE FIRE OAK
DEVELOPED TOOLS TO PROTECT
CIVIL MILITARY COMMERCIAL
SPACE OPERATIONS WHATTU DO YOU
MAKE OF THIS REPORT WHAT CHINA
IS DOING, IN TERMS OF
INTERSECTING SOME OF THAT WHAT
THAT MEANS FOR NAURNL SECURITY
IN THE U.S.
>> I TELL YOU SM COME TO NO
PRECISE TO ANYONE FRANKLY I
DIDN’T READ THE CLASSIFIED
LEAKED REPORTS BUT I HAVE READ
MEDIA REPORTING AROUND IT
NONSHOULD BE A SURPRISE THOSE
IN NATIONAL SECURITY HAVE
KNOWN A LONG TIME THIS IS AN
ISSUE, A HUGE ISSUE, AND,
FRANKLY, BEST I CAN MAKE OF IT
IS TO SUGGEST THAT, YES,
AREN’T WE GOING FASTER, THAT
IS NUMBER ONE.
NUMBER TWO, WHY ARE ALL THEE
THINGS STILL SO CLASSIFIED I
THINK AMERICAN PEOPLE HE I
THINK CONGRESS HE EVERYBODY
OUGHT TO BE MORE AWARE OF THIS
THREAT THAT IS UPON US, NOT
JUST MILITARILY.
>> WE LEARNED FROM PENTAGON
LEAKS TAIWAN NOT READY SHOULD
CHINA GO IN THERE WHAT DO YOU
SEE AS BIGGEST THREATS RIGHT
NOW IN IN TERMS OF U.S.
NATIONAL SECURITY.
>> BY FAR, WE ARE COMPLETELY
DEPENDENT UPON SPACE SYSTEMS
FOR WAR FIGHTING CAPABILITY
FRANKLY FOR EVERYDAY LIFE, AND
IT IS NO LONGER AT ROCKET
SCIENCE IT IS DATA SCIENCE,
AND CAT SCIENCE MEANS DONE IN
SOFTWARE WE NEED TO MOVE OUT
QUICKLY, TO LEVERAGE THE
COMMERCIAL MARKETPLACE OF
CYBERSECURITY TOOLS SPIDER
OAK, IN MY OPINION, HAS BEST
SOLUTION THERE ARE MANY OUT
THERE WE HAVE TO MOVE NOW
THING SCARY NOT POLITICAL
LEADERSHIP NOT THE SOLDIERS IN
THE FIELD GETTING IN THE WAY
IT IS THE MIDDLE THE MIDDLE
SORT OF MIDDLOCRACY, PEOPLE
PREVENTING A LOT OF SOLUTIONS
TO PROTECT AMERICANS.
MARIA: WELL, WHAT ABOUT THE
FACT THAT THERE IS A STORY IN
THE JOURNAL THIS MORNING,
ABOUT HOW THE WHOLE WORLD IS
INCREASING SPENDING ON
MILITARY RIGHT NOW BECAUSE OF
THE ADVERSARIAL THREATS OUT
THERE LIKE CHINA LIKE RUSSIA,
BUT U.S. IS NOT, WE’RE LOOKING
AT 3% INCREASE, OF COURSE, IS
A DECLINE, WHEN MEASURED
AGAINST INFLATION.
>> THAT IS A SCARY THING, A
LOT OF THE MILITARY SPENDING,
OF COURSE, IN OUR COUNTRY
ESPECIALLY, VERY POLITICAL
SCHT RIGHT?
NOT DOESN’T EVEN AS POLITICAL,
FALLS ALONG PARTISAN LINES
SOME MORE PROPORTIONATES OF
MORE DEFENSE SPENDING OTHERS
ARE NOT THE TRAGEDY IN MY MIND
THE SOLUTIONS ALREADY EXIST,
WHAT WE NEED TO DO IS
ACTUALLY, DO THEM BECAUSE SOFT
I CAN GIVE YOU EXAMPLE, RIGHT
NOW IT IS AN ACKNOWLEDGED
THING THAT OUR GPS SYSTEM WE
EVERYBODY RELIES ON SOLDIERS
IN FIELD TRYING TO DRIVE TO
WORK IN THE MORNING
VULNERABLE.
CYBERATTACKING WOULD RENDER
ENTIRE DOWN MOTION LEAST
TRANSACTIONLESS IF ATTACKED
THAT CAN BE SOLVED WITH SOME
SIMPLE SOFTWARE SOLUTIONS THAT
ARE AVAILABLE OFF THE SHELF,
BUT WE DON’T DO IT, BECAUSE --
THE -- THE SORT OF A LOT OF
DEFENSE SPENDING ENDS UP GOING
TO THE LARGE TRADITIONAL
DEFENSE PROJECTS I AM NOT
SAYING ISN’T IMPORTANT BUT
SOLUTIONS FOR CYBERSECURITY
ARE NOT GOING TO COME FROM THE
TRADITIONAL, ARE THERE COMING
FROM COMMUNITIES LARGE ON WEST
COAST, AND, VESSELED --
BASICALLY CALLED TECH
INDUSTRY, SPIDER OAK PROUD TO
BE PART OF THAT READY TO
SERVE.
>> I WANT TO PLAY A SOUND BITE
FROM MICHAEL MCCAUL JOINED ME
ON "SUNDAY MORNING FUTURES"
LAST WEEK TALKING ABOUT TAIWAN
ABLE TO GET EYES AND EARS
OWING FROM STARLINK PROGRAM,
EVERY TIME WE TALK ABOUT THE
FACT THAT TAIWAN HAS ALREADY
PAID FOR WEAPONS WHY THE YU
CONSOLIDATES HAVE NOT GOTTEN
THEM YET WE KEEP HEARING THAT
THE -- THE DEFENSE
MANUFACTURES CANNOT
MANUFACTURE THIS STUFF FAST
ENOUGH.
HERE IS MICHAEL MCCAUL FROM
SUNDAY WHAT TAIWAN NEEDS WHAT
HE IS TRYING TO GET THEM,
WATCH.
>> YOU ARE HE YOU AND I
AUK ABOUT, INTELLIGENT
SURVEILLANCE RECOGNIZANCE
CHINA HAS EYES AND EARS OWING
EVERYWHERE IN PACIFIC REGION.
WE HAVE SOME.
THE TAIWAN HAS NONE WE TALKED
ABOUT IDEA LIKE UKRAINE A
STARLINK SATELLITE SYSTEM TO
GIVE TAIWAN EASE AND EARS
OWING TO SEE INTO CHINA THE
THREAT BEFORE IT COMES SO THEY
CAN STOP IT FROM INVADING
ISLANDS.
MARIA: A SO, MCCAUL IS
WORKING ON THAT AS CHAIRMAN OF
FOREIGN AFFAIRS COMMITTEE IN
THE HOUSE, CHARLES HOW SHOULD
THE UNITED STATES RESPOND TO
THIS THREAT?
AND WHY IS IT THAT WE HEAR THE
MANUFACTURES OF WEAPONS CAN’T
MAKE THEM FAST ENOUGH.
>> AS CRUNCH WE TOOK A HOLIDAY
MANUFACTURING WEAPONS SYSTEMS
THE GLOBAL ON TERRORISM
REQUIRED A DIFFERENT TYPES OF
-- OF EXPERTISE, AND SPENDING
WE -- WE KIND OF TOOK A
HOLIDAY FROM THE OTHER, THE
BASIC WAR MAKING THING THE
SITUATION WE ARE IN, WE TALK
ABOUT STARLINK WE TALK ABOUT
THAT IS, OBVIOUSLY, ELON
MUSK’S CAPABILITY THAT IS
REALLY I DON’T MEAN TO CORRECT
THE CONGRESSMAN BUT THAT IS A
COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEM
IMPORTANT ONE BUT COMMERCIAL,
WERE IT NOT FOR THAT NO
CAPABILITY EVEN AVAILABLE WERE
IT NOT FOR COMMERCIAL ONES OUR
DEFENSE INDUSTRY LARGELY BEEN
OUT SORT OF OUT OF THE
PICTURE.
FOR A LOT OF -- A LOT OF
CAPABILITIES NEEDED TODAY WE HAVE TO GO FASTER THE CHEAPEST
HAVE TO GO FASTER THE CHEAPEST
SPACE OPERATION SALZMAN IN
COLORADO SAID NOT MOVING
QUICKLY ENOUGH ONLY WAY TO
MOVE FAST KIND OF GET RID OF
PEOPLE THAT WANT TO STUDY
ANALYZE THINGS GET, AND GET ON
O HO DEPLOYING A LOT
OF CAPABILITIES INCLUDING
