Travel Without Moving - Cheyenne Mountain Operations Center

It's a small world -- and a busy one, this post was supposed to appear the previous week so here it goes. There are certain places you just can't miss on the world's map, and the Cheyenne Mountain Operations Center is one of them. Remember the typical massive gate in the War Games movie, or in pretty much any other military/intelligence thriller you've watched? Try this one. Nuke it, EMP it, it's supposed to stand tall, yet it remains a visible sensitive location for you to enjoy without moving. The other day I came across to a report that I somehow missed in relation to various threats -- if any -- posed by Google Earth. "Google Earth Study: Impacts and Uses for Defence and Security" is worth the read :



"The Google Earth study on the impacts and uses for defence and security is aimed at answering a number of questions. What are the technical features, the reliability and limits of GE data and software, regarding international security regulations? Which confidence in data, real dangers of a pernicious use, or impacts of such an easy access to imagery is there on users or the geographical information market? What are the new applications stemming from GE, which services can be derived from this application, or what are the ways to integrate GE into an information system?"



Stay tuned for the upcoming 0day sights from around the world.
