BT Recruitment BT An Option For You? 1 Introduction - Tinker, tailor, soldier cyber-defender? (Taken from the BT Assure RUSI article: http://www.globalservices.bt.com/static/assets/pdf/defence/rusi_bt_v2.pdf) We ve come a long way since the 1970s. When Le Carré wrote Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy, the East and West were locked in an expensive and dangerous game. Spies like Smiley s roamed the world, gathering state secrets for their masters. Today, we re locked in a very different conflict one between cybercriminals, cyber-terrorists and state-sponsored attackers on one side, and IT security specialists and cyber-defence teams on the other. Costs are escalating a report produced for the Cabinet Office estimated the hit on the British economy at 27 billion a year and spies are back in vogue. The costs of intellectual property theft and industrial espionage alone were projected at more than 16 billion a year. The tabloids may focus on teenagers hacking into highly-secure IT systems from their bedrooms, but this is clearly just a small part of the problem. Look deeper and you get an entirely different picture one in which criminal firms are emerging and operating on an industrial scale. While teenage hackers do the equivalent of spraying graffiti and breaking windows, these professionals are getting away with organisations crown jewels. There is even talk of them having developed specialised operating systems for their computers things analogous to Windows, but tailored to their illicit tasks. Cyber defence is high risk, and a key corporate and public priority, but it is also growing and big business, in which BT is on the cutting edge. We are growing and we need you to help us grow and to maintain our world class status. 2 BT/Military fit From our experience the military fit well into BT. The culture and drive to succeed of Royal Navy, Army and Royal Air Force matches neatly our core BT values. In addition to this you understand the need to be discreet about and you also bring an understanding and experience of key security partners. The transition from the military to civilian life can be challenging and in particular working out where you fit into an organisation can be difficult. To help with this we have put together this equivalence table: Issue: BT Military/ Recruitment Briefing V1.1 1
