The terminal on the left is a very nice touch. Looks like someone's hitting the DoD with a cybersec cluebat.
Nice looking, yes. Clue, not so much. It could be argued that they:
- shouldn't be sitting with an open root shell
- should use audited/logged sudo for root stuffs
- use the full path to 'ls'
but I probably shouldn't get bogged down discussing a graphic on a website

I think the point was to look like the POV of a hacker having taken root on another box.
makes sense, enemies of the future are aiming to attack our connectivity in the field of battle( so we can't coordinate a war) and cyber attacks to steal information. Cough cough china.
wtf why the hell did people vote my shit down. cyberattacks from china is the new threat in future wars and the pentagon needs talented americans to prepare and combat it. Its an inconveinent truth.

Kids, if you're looking for an interesting and exciting career in information security, steer clear of forensics. Ask your friendly neighborhood pentester what "EnCase Jockey" means.
