- Declining fiscal and personnel resources - mission becomes `budget driven' (`Fair share' budget cuts may destroy important capabilities)
- Uncertain/hard-to-define future missions
- Forced merger with other Navy organizational entities or even other service organizations might mean the loss of professional Navy cryptology
- World (competitive landscape) changing too fast to track
- Products and services becoming obsolete due to rapidly advancing technology
- Budget driving increased reliance on less robust systems (e.g. remote operations, outsourcing)
- Loss of control under `joint' mandates (mergers and acquisitions)
- Loss of primacy of cryptology due to growing reliance on other forms of intelligence (loss of major business lines)
- Diverging goals between strategic and tactical programs could destroy synergy of products and services)
- Loss of global reach from closing overseas sites
Musings, leadership tidbits and quotes posted by a retired Navy Captain (really just a high performing 2nd Class Petty Officer) who hung up his uniform a bit too early. He still wears his Navy service on his sleeve. He needs to get over that. "ADVANCE WARNING - NO ORIGINAL THOUGHT!" A "self-appointed" lead EVANGELIST for the "cryptologic community". Keeping CRYPTOLOGY alive-one day and Sailor at a time. 2015 is 80th Anniversary of the Naval Security Group.

I guess nobody saw Commander of NSGC imposing threat number three on the community of his own accord.
Ow. That duck has teeth.
Back it up Rubber Duck. Share your facts with us.
