Hellfire is the only Disney villain song where the antagonist is not having a good time....
Tumblr media
I'm trying to think of the reasons why Hellfire is one, if not, the best Disney villain song and how it's different from the others, and this is what I noticed...
Their songs is where we see the motives, goals and overall character of the villains and how they'll drive the plot of the movie.
However I don't think I've ever seen another Disney villain who's having a horrible time.
Tumblr media
Frollo is the only one I've seen who's in pain in a sense.
He's not singing because its his number, no, he's singing because he's struggling with his inhibitions.
I mean, look at the other guys...
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
They're having a gay ol' time
.
Another thing I've noticed to other villain songs is that they have an audience.
I think they need to because it's usually the time where they hatch their evil plans and the audience is generally the main protagonist.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Meanwhile Frollo doesn't want anyone to know his little "trouble" with the fireplace.
He doesn't want witnesses... no one has to know, no one needs to, and he made sure of that.
Tumblr media
Even having to burn Esmeralda's scarf so nobody can find it. He was determined to keep his motives hidden.
He's alone, restless, and vulnerable, as shown with him not wearing his usual vestments (hat and the shoulder pad thing).
The only people who knows Hellfire exists is him and us, the viewers.
Tumblr media
Decides to make this also because I've been seeing people who've watched the new movie Wish and a lot are comparing the villain songs to the old ones.

EU losing its appetite for more sanctions – Polish PM — Apsny News
Warsaw will nevertheless push Brussels to hit Moscow with fresh restrictions, Mateusz Morawiecki has said The EU is suffering from sanctions “fatigue” and has “less appetite” to impose further economic penalties on Moscow, Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki said on Saturday. The sanctions proposed by Morawiecki will likely be opposed by some of the bloc’s members.  Speaking to Poland’s RMF…

First off, here you are, once again, getting me into a pairing I never thought of with that recent RMF.
Secondly, to the anon who threw that idea of Ichigo becoming a Kenpachi...I am glad we have the same brain cell bc that is an idea that had floated in my brain these past few weeks tbh while thinking up a few of my UraIchi wips and the ArdynIchigo one.
Something like TYBW goes ass up and very few survivors so Kisuke creates time travel bc of course he does and him and Ichigo and Aizen go back to the past only something goes awry during it that the three get flung back into different points in the past.
Aizen is the first to "awaken" only he's just barely in his first year in the academy and he's annoyed more than anything bc the strings that bonds his soul to his two fools' own are still there, only dimmed so for now, he's on his own and plans accordingly.
Scraps his plans for takeover bc he feels the hyogoku within him, still has his immortality, and Kyouka Suigetsu at his side once more, though he brushes away the sting of her cold /hurt silence bc he deserves that, and instead makes plans to punch the two idiots once they catch up, so to speak for making him suffer SS's glacial progress.
Then Kisuke wakes up the day he becomes Captain and it's not long before he and Lt. Aizen run into each other and Kisuke knows now and it's not long before Aizen is putting in a request for a transfer to the 12th Division for the newly constructed SRDI, switching positions with Hiyori there.
(She's shocked/offended and perhaps a bit fearful that it's her being reprimand for the way she has treated the Captain. And honestly, it sort of is, Kisuke decides though he doesn't say it. Instead he and Aizen have to plans to make for the day Ywhach makes his move. But more importantly, they need to prepare for the wave of chaos that Ichigo will bring to SS because that's just how she is.)
Then of course she arrives with a bang. Literally. And being a little more feral these days, she kills Kenpachi Kiganjo on instinct and becomes Kenpachi Ichigo and 11th Division Captain in one swing of her blade.
But at least the trio have a whole squad ready to spill blood now when Ywhach comes calling later down the line.
That's what I got for now but it's something I'm excited to flesh out.
Oh Oh yesssss flesh this out please because it looks exquisite so far and I need it

You know what? since we're sharing the moment we fell in love with Nefario...
Watched it with my siblings, I was only watching it cause the animation looked nice. Then the Criminal Records scene came and the first thing I noticed was his voice sounded familiar and instantly knew it was Nefario. I was like "hey it's him" and thought it was a cool cameo. His scene kept going and the part when he said "I overheard you were looking for something special" and made that fkkin face, realization came and I thought "uhhh.. why is he...kinda attractive?" and I was smiling like an idiot the whole time. Thank goodness I was wearing a mask. Went out of the theater and told my sister young Nefario was lowkey hot, and she agreed lol.
HELEPP MEE i showed a pic of young dr nefario to my mum and asked "do you think hes handsome" AND SHE SAID YEAH

INTERLUDE: Shinkansen Musings
Introduction:
While we travel from Tokyo to Kyoto, we wanted to offer our reflections on our trip so far.
 Favorite Foods
AJM-
#5 Sometaro (okonomiyaki in Asakusa)
#4 You (Omurice)
#3 Gonpachi (Yakitori and Kill Bill vibes)
#2 Sushi Dai (Tsukiji Market)
#1 Rokurinsha (Dipping ramen on Ramen Street in Tokyo station)
 RMF:
#5 Kiwi/lime/mint gelato- Pariya (Food Show at Tokyo Station)
#4 Sushi Dai (Tsukiji Market)
#3 Gonpachi (Yakitori and Kill Bill vibes)
#2 Shoyu Ramen (Ramen Museum)
#1 Sometaro (Okonomiyaki in Asakusa)
Favorite Neighborhoods
AJM-
#3 Shibuya
#2 Ginza
#1 Harajuku/Aoyama
 RMF-
#3 Odaiba
#2 Shibuya
#1 Asakusa
 Favorite Activities
AJM-
#5 Golden Gai
#4 Akiba Kart
#3 Shopping in Akihabara
#2 Meiji Shrine
#1 Tsukiji Market Tour
 RMF-
#5 Shopping in Harajuku
#4 Golden Gai
#3 Meiji Shrine
#2 Tsukiji Market
#1 Akiba Kart
 Concluding Tokyo Thoughts
AJM: I was skeptical at first that Tokyo would be different from other cities but after visiting, it is a complete different kingdom from New York. From the way people stand in lines everywhere to the signs of respect in everyday culture, this trip opened my eyes to how diverse a planet we live on. It is definitely a bigger city than just a haven for anime and video games.
 RMF: I kept saying the entire time we were in Tokyo that everything we hate about New York is not a problem in Tokyo. It is impeccably clean everywhere you go, people speak at reasonable volumes, there are clean bathrooms everywhere, people are nice to each other (in general of course), and the first instinct is to respect the person next to you, not ignore them. I loved how distinct each neighborhood was. I mean, that is also true in New York, but I think in a very different way.

She speaks in a language I do not know and syllables fall off her tongue like a graceful dive into the ocean of the calm ambience before us. And although I cannot figure out if her words are bitter or sweet I smile at the melody she forms, because the sound of her voice has always been a fucking symphony and I am in love with the tempo of her words, in time with the beating of her heart and the cascade of sentences follow the build of the crescendo until we are left in awe of all her beauty and all her sounds. And here in this place, understanding does not matter because beauty has always transcended meaning. That’s why we stand in museums of art no one can make sense of. And if my thoughts have any merit, she belongs alongside all the obscure masterpieces in this world.

#FMF
The following text will be exploring and discussing the #FessMustFall movement as a part of the theme political life. This will be discussed in relation to how the digital media has played an important part in allowing for the movement to be successful. This will be explored through referring to examples, and can also be seen through the texts posted under this theme (pictures, memes). The text will also discuss person opinions, experiences and responses to this. 
The idea of #FeesMustFall was developed and coordinated by The Rhodes Must Fall campaign, which took place at the University of Cape Town, where students demanded for the removal of the John Cecil Rhodes statue that was a  symbolism of white power and superiority during the apartheid regime (Ngcaweni, 2015: 176, in Daniels, 2016). The Fees Must Fall hashtag argues and protests beyond the problem of the 10% increase, rather focusing on problems such as “#Whiteprivellege, calls for the decolonisation of the curriculum, transformation of the university’s race and gender composition and rage against the devaluing and exclusion of black voice and culture” (Daniels, 2016). These movements are portrayed as successful and thus as a result of the power of the new media such as Twitter as an example. 
Tanja Bosch’s (2016) article argues that “social media discussions on Twitter specifically and the resultant emerging networked public of #RMF successfully set the agenda for public debate in other virtual spaces” (Bosch, 2016). This reinforces the idea that new digital media platforms such as Twitter contribute to the success of political movements. It has been said that Twitter has become the focus of student attention, with many pieces of information that prove that it is used to allow for communication amongst people (Bosch, 2016: 4). It can also “inform and mobilise during social unrest, to inform political discourse and to precede revolutionary events on the ground (Gleason, 2013).
The role of Twitter and social media during the time of the Arab spring has been well recorded. Researchers argue that social media has allowed for the emergence of new types and techniques of protesting (Bosch, 2016). 
The purpose of this text is more then just explaining what the #FessMustFall movement was about. This text explores how Twitter as a form of digital media has allowed for this to happen. At the end of 2015 media analysts attempted to engage with the trends in the political hashtags. According to the annual Twitter reviews, the “top trending hashtags for the year were #FeesMustFall and #NationalShutDown” (Daniels, 2016). This explains for the way in which the movements received such widespread global coverage impacted through the use of the hashtag on Twitter. This can be reiterated through the way that Daniels (2016) says that social media is “more then just about sharing your views and opinions” (Daniels, 2016). This was said in response to the way in which Mohammed Abdulla said he uses social media to write his own life story (Dirk and Peterson, 2015). Through the use of these examples explained above, one can understand how digital activism via the digital media can blend in with radical democracy. 
Personal responses, thoughts ad opinions can be seen through the idea of many theorists’ work. Moyo (2009), Stassen (2010), Van Noort and Verweij (2013) say that the rise of the new media like social media, has created a platform for the participation of the countries citizens in a democracy (Daniels, 2016: 181) to express and feel as they do. Daniels speaks about the effectiveness of Twitter as a platform of protests for #FeesMustFall. An apparent “total of 1,490,377 tweets were captured between 14 and 29 October, with 86,837 belonging to members of the public”. These high numbers show the high citizen participation through the digital media to allow for change. 
Personal experiences and opinions towards Twitter are positive and radical. The platform allows for any people of any place to engage with an uprising problem or issue. These issues are dealt with in a manner where people can say what they like without any form of publication from mainstream media. This is because the mainstream media news can be fake and fixed a lot of the time, often resulting in misleading conclusions. Twitter, and more importantly the rise of this through the digital media can be seen to be portrayed as radical in its success in political activism. Personally, the platform is great for reliable news sources, allowing people of the public community and twitter community to say as they feel at any time of the day. 
Another idea towards the development of social media activism is seen in the work of Mano and Mukhongo (2016). They say they that social media have enhanced and reshaped alternative media in Africa. The power in the new media has become so effective, and this statement can be supported through the way in which “the courts attempted to ban students from using the #FeesMustFall, making it evident that the use of Twitter, Facebook and WhatsApp and other social media as forms of alternative has been met with increased attempts by authorities to censor and control access to social media” (Mano & Mukhongo, 2016) and this shows the way in which the people in power do not want the community members to have access to these forms of media as a result of what they are capable of doing. Downing’s (2001) idea relates to the idea of Mano and Mukhongo. This is due to the way in which Downing (2001) notifies new media as “radical media expressing an alternative vision to hegemonic policies, priorities and perspectives” (Mano & Mukhongo ,2016: 27).
In conclusion, one can see that, through the examples and references used in above text, Twitter, social media and more so the digital media, has allowed for a space of political activism for students and members of the public in the case of #FessMustFall. This can be seen through the way in which the digital media allows for free participation at anytime by anyone allowing for a success in certain movements for the right reasons. More so, personal responses, thoughts and experiences are also included in the text.

The GP F1 track transformed into jumping arena 
Like a veritable theater stage the Port Hercules in the Principality transforms itself periodically. Even when the last remnants of the F1 Grand Prix were still in place waiting to be disassembled, over 1100 tons of sand transported on 60 trucks were carefully spread over the quay on the southern dock, at the foot of the Prince’s Palace, to create a 2025m2 ephemeral arena designed by Luc Musette, plus 1100m2 paddock for 195 horses, an spectator’s tribune, stunning VIP corporate hospitality loges, chic boutiques and the double deck riders’ club, for the traditional and highly anticipated 13thedition of the International Jumping of Monte-Carlo, from June 28-30, 2018, one of the most prestigious stops of the Longines Global Champions Tour (LGCT).
A view of the arena in Monaco@Mario Grassia/LGCT 2018
Flawlessly organized and presided by Diane Fissore, and Jan Tops, professional Gold medal rider and leader in the horse-trading world, the competition is one of the highlights of the LGCT, and it is the third most important sporting event  in the Principality together with the F1 Grand Prix and the Tennis Masters.

A smiling Christian had said after his blistering round: “It’s fun! I’m lucky I have a fast mare that makes even a slow rider like me fast! My teammate did a really good job. I just tried to make her go faster in the second round, but we have a few problems with our language – I don’t speak French!”
Breen claimed victory in thrilling LGCT Grand Prix Prince of Monaco
Under the patronage of HSH Prince Albert II of Monaco, the 9th leg of the Championship race is a long-standing and popular stop on the calendar, with illustrious names listed on the winners’ roster over the years. The Longines Global Champions Tour Grand Prix Prince of Monaco took place on Saturday, June 30 in the evening, the last day of the competition.
With 35 riders qualified, Ireland’s Shane Breen, who was the last rider to go, took the biggest win of his career and dashed Alberto Zorzi’s (ITA) hopes of a back-to-back Longines Global Champions Tour Grand Prix Prince of Monaco Presented by Sapinda win, after a spectacular performance aboard Ipswich van de Wolfsakker on Saturday, June 30, 2018. Breen’s win means he is the latest addition to the GC Playoffs, with a ticket to the elite line-up in the Longines Global Champions Tour Super Grand Prix that will take place in Prague this December.

Breen finished just tenths of a second ahead of Zorzi and Fair Light van T Heike with Denis Lynch (IRL) and RMF Bella Baloubet taking third.
This would be the biggest win of Breen’s career, and the Irishman punched the air in triumph ecstatic at his win, and place in the GC Playoffs. Breen was quoted saying: “This is my biggest career win and my first time winning at the LGCT Grand Prix. It is a great honor to be here and to be part of the GCL – it’s a great atmosphere. Ipswich is quite a green horse at this level and has had a few fences down this season.  We’ve been knocking on the door but today he jumped fantastically.
He was surprisingly relaxed as he can be quite sharp and has a lot of nervous energy but that was in our favor this evening in Monaco. He produced two super rounds and with Dennis leaving the door slightly open and Aberto with a fantastic quick round, the guys on the ground were saying that if I could do the same numbers my horse is naturally very quick.When I turned for number one, I didn’t have a flier at it, then I went nine strides to the second jump and I had to remind myself not to panick.I got the double jumped and moved on a bit then and fortunately when addressing the last I saw a good stride and took it! I’m now in the LGCT [Super Grand Prix] and I’m elated – it’s an elite group of riders, so I hope I can take Ipswich there again and do well.”

#FeesMustFall movement
#FeesMustFall is an anti-poverty activism in South Africa and a call for the decolonization of the educational system. I am going to firstly explain #RhodesMustFall and how it came about, as it is the one which created a spark in the #FMF movement. The digital space facilitated in the dissemination of information on social networks, mostly on Twitter. This highlight the power of the digital media and how it became a ‘voice’ to those with less power. I will then look at #FMF as an anti-poverty activism and the issues that were raised by black students within their institutions. The notion of a ‘free and decolonized education’ has different meanings attached to it by students from previously white institutions and from previously black institutions. Tuition fees is still a problem which most black students struggle with, thus it is a barrier for them to fulfil their studies.
The ongoing student movement in South Africa #FeesMustFall was propagated by #RhodesMustFall or #RMF. The #RMF campaign was organized by the students at the University of Cape Town as a demand for the statue of Cecil John Rhodes to be removed (Bosch, 2016), The removal of the statue was to eradicate the existing privileges and white supremacy in the University of Cape Town, this was supported by most students and workers (Pillay, 2016). Rhodes is believed to have made some racist statement in the past, while others highlighted his financial support in South Africa (Bosch, 2016). ‘White privilege’ is seen to be persisting even today, hence the students are fighting against those who are in power so that they can change the system in which students find themselves in (Golding-Duffy, 2017). Naicker (2016: 54) shows how “RMF linked their campaign to the struggle for black liberation in a colonial space”, thus the fall of the statue was also a symbol of the collapse of white supremacy on their campus. The #RMF campaign fuelled the #FeesMustFall movement that has spread nationwide in various Universities against the increase of fees in Higher Institutions (Bosch, 2016).
The student-led movement started in mid-October 2015, as a sign of student’s dissatisfaction with the post-apartheid democracy that is marginalizing black students (Bosch, 2016). This movement caused the whole nation to be on standstill and academic activities could not continue (Luescher et al, 2017). It started at the University of the Witwatersrand after the students exclaimed that the high fees will be unaffordable for most poor black students who come from economically disadvantaged families (Pillay, 2016), and it had a lot of underlying factors that arose, which will be discussed later.  The fees at most universities are relatively high for some students to even afford, especially at the previously white institutions. This movement is a clear indication that the students are taking the politics of this country seriously and that they are willing to fight at all cost to make sure that there is transformation (Pillay, 2016). Thus, the digital space has also facilitated in the transmission of information.
The social media has facilitated in the success of #RMF campaign and #FMF movement, allowing for political activism to take place online with support from other people (Bosch, 2016). Social media allows for protest discussions to take place online, granting free-flow of information and allowing for students to speak with one voice. Discussions on #RMF became central on Social Network Sites, predominantly on Twitter where people shared their ideas and opinions regarding the removal of the statue (Bosch, 2016), which also spoke to the racial identity in that space. The tweets that had the hashtag #RMF had people who were not supporting the removal of the statue and the majority that agreed for its removal, this shows the power of public opinion (Luescher et al, 2017). Twitter allowed people to understand why the black students wanted the statue to be removed and thus speaking of white privilege and race which seemed to be one of the issues rising from the conversations that took place on Twitter (Bosch, 2016). Even the digital divide played a role as to how other people had more voice over the movement, and even those who are on social networks they are not all politically active. This shows how the marginalized group of students can be heard through the technological devices (Ngidi et al, 2016). In this digital age that we live in, social media platforms become a voice to the ‘voiceless’. Social media networks such as WhatsApp, Facebook and Twitter allowed students to mobilize protests with other students from across the country, communicate amongst each other and the broader society about the information related to the movement (Mano and Mukhongo, 2016; Pillay, 2016). Social media facilitated in sharing stories of black people and using the platform as an anti-poverty activism. Enlightening the public about the encounter of inequality and poverty that is lingering amongst black students or black communities (Ngidi et al, 2016). Supporting the movement meant that one was aware of the injustice and inequality that is within our Universities and the technological devices gave a platform to have a say in the events as they were occurring (Pillay, 2016).
Cell phones became a very powerful tool to fight against the system that seems to be against them (Ngidi et al, 2016). The SNS allowed for students to portray events as they happened and communicate about the next moves they will be taking. Luescher et al (2017: 231) theorize the movement as the ‘internet age networked student movement’ because of its prominence on social networks (Luescher et al, 2017). Students did not want to succumb to postcolonial injustices that persist even today, and the way in which status quo divide people (Pillay, 2016). The movement included people who were deprived the chance to complete their studies and fighting for the future generation that might not be able to further their studies because of the financial constraints (Ngidi et al, 2016). The online movement managed to get attention from the media and authorities in higher positions. The broadcast media shown the students as being violent misinforming the public and not emphasizing the issues that the students were fighting for such as inequality, exclusion and poverty (Ngidi et al, 2016). They highlighted the 0% fees increase as the only demand for students. After weeks of protesting, the Minister of Higher Education who made a joke regarding the hashtag that student used to mobilize, and he said ‘#StudentsMustFall’. This response by someone who is in power shows how lightly he took this movement. Poor students or those coming from low-income families shared their stories online and their aspiration for a better future so that people can understand why they are fighting for a free and decolonised education (Ngidi et al, 2016)
Some of the issues that arose from the #FeesMustFall movement was the decolonization of the system used in higher institutions of learning, changes in the racial inequalities amongst academic staff and the outsourcing of workers (Langa, 2016; Naicker, 2016). This goes back to how the youth of 1976 fought against the educational system which was discriminatory, the ‘bantu education’. This highlights how the educational system has always been a problem in South Africa, it is just different years, but the struggle is the same (Ngidi et al, 2016). Some of the messages that came through was the negation of the past events in the future of South Africa.  A cry for the curriculum to be decolonized has always been one of the reasons the movement started and for it to be relatable to African people (Bosch, 2016; Naicker, 2016). Even though the student wanted a free and decolonised education, there were different views attached to it by students from various universities. In historically white institutions, they wanted change of the curriculum and that which included African history and people. Whilst in historically black institution, their understanding of a decolonised education is one where there is quality education for all (Langa, 2016).  The notion of a decolonised educational system speaks directly to black people in this country and what it means to be a black person in South Africa.
Most university students come from poor backgrounds and education is their only ticket out of poverty and with the increase of fees, it becomes very hard for some to fulfil their dreams. The fees increment happens yearly, even though there are limited funding opportunities for all students, and for some it means that the cycle of poverty in their families will continue (Ngidi et al, 2016). This means that some students will not be able to get their qualifications nor finish their studies because of financial issues that remain a problem in South Africa even today. Their worry is whether they will be able to finish with their studies or not because financial security is still a problem for most black students. Even after 23 years into democracy the promise of ‘free education and a better life for all’ by the African National Congress (ANC) has not been met fully (Naicker, 2016). The government started the National Student Financial Aid Scheme (NSFAS) to help poor students who are unable to afford university fees, but does not fund all. Only moderately 17% gets funded and the annual income threshold of R122 000 per family to qualify (Ngidi et al, 2016). This is evident that the government does not want to implement free education for all hence their main aim is to try and help ‘some’ students from low-income backgrounds and this has fuelled more frustration on the protesting students (Golding-Duffy, 2017). The students did not want the fees to be increased, they suggest that the government have power to fund tertiary education. They feel like the government is not taking their call for ‘free education for all’ seriously, hence they still protest even today (Golding-Duffy, 2017). Some of the workers joined in and supported the students as they are also parents who understand the student’s grievances. Higher institutions exclude students who are unable to pay their fees or debt, thus creating a hindrance for their fulfilment of their studies (Ngidi et al, 2016). Those students who are in debt are not given their certificates and that means that they will not be able to find work (Langa, 2016). Majority of the students who were behind the movement are probably the first in their families to come to University (Ngidi et al, 2016). Education is a basic right for every student and should not be commodified (Langa, 2016).
The ‘1 month 1 million’ campaign was started by the Wits Student Representative Council to help support students who could not pay for their tuition fees. This campaign was started in February 2015 before the movement of #FeesMustFall started. One can see that this was a sign that there is a problem in our higher educational institutions regarding funding of students (Langa, 2016). Though they managed to raise R5 million, they exclaimed it was not enough to pay for all the outstanding student fees, but they managed to help most students. This was an alert to the whole nation that there is a problem with the fees in Universities, and this was one of their ways of protesting against high tuition fees (Langa, 2016: 133). This campaign was later followed by the #RMF and the #TransformWits, which became racialised movements. #RMF was for the removal of the statue and #TransformWits highlighted the need to have an Afrocentric curriculum meaning a transformation of the curriculum, renaming buildings, having more black academics and helping disadvantaged students (Langa, 2016; Naicker, 2016). To get a full understanding of why the students led movement originally started one must look at “the ways in which race and class privilege have been reified in the post-apartheid era” (Naicker, 2016: 55).
The #RMF campaign was a call for the removal of the statue which represented colonial history and white supremacy at the University of Cape Town. The success of the campaign can be said to have been aided by the social media, especially Twitter because that is where the campaign gained its prominence. This shows the power of the digital media in mobilizing people from different places. #FMF is the largest student movement in post-apartheid South Africa which later followed the #RMF. Students were mainly fighting for fees to not be increased for the following year but there were several underlying factors that arose from the movement which went beyond the issue of fees. The issues that arose was to have a free and decolonized education, and create a space in Universities where even Black people could feel like they belong. The access to education for all is to make sure that the poor students can study.

The Truth Behind New Cybersecurity Rules for Contractors
No, the sky is not falling, and no, you probably won’t lose your defense contracts either.
With December 31, 2017 just around the corner, many technology firms, news agencies, and people claiming to be experts are waving the red flag, fanning the flames, and doing their best to incite some panic.
Well, here is the real truth about these new ‘cybersecurity’ rules for defense contractors. There’s no need to take my word for what they say because I’m going to paste the exact words right here:
(1)  By submission of this offer, the Offeror represents that it will implement the security requirements specified by National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Special Publication (SP) 800-171 “Protecting Controlled Unclassified Information in Nonfederal Information Systems and Organizations” (see http://dx.doi.org/10.6028/NIST.SP.800-171) that are in effect at the time the solicitation is issued or as authorized by the contracting officer not later than December 31, 2017.
Next, let me show you where I got that information:
http://www.acq.osd.mil/dpap/dars/dfars/html/current/252204.htm#252.204-7008
If you like, you can visit that link and get the entire supplement, but I wouldn’t bother. Here are the top truths about this supplement.
Look for the keyword in the text above that I pasted in for you. See the word ‘will’? Do you think that means you MUST comply by 12/31/2017?
There are no cybersecurity police that are going to come knock on your office door and take your contracts
A Contracting Officer (KO) doesn’t know that much about cybersecurity, NIST 800-171, or the Risk Management Framework (RMF)
The KO of your current contracts will not magically pass down some special authorization or ruling that will impact your current contracts
Don’t listen to all of the big IT vendors who are telling you it will take 6-12 months to implement the technology necessary to comply
If you have the time to read the 110 security controls listed in NIST 800-171, you will notice the high percentage of controls which are not impacted by technology, but rather by people and process
That said, does this mean you just thumb your nose at this guidance? Absolutely not!
In my recent experiences with my customers, and what I expect to see more of in the future, is preferential weighting to contractors who produce well-documented cybersecurity operational readiness statements in their proposals.
It is unlikely that there will be any type of forced compliance to this new guidance. However, there is nothing saying that companies who implement the guidance, and assure the government of their dedication and diligence regarding the protection of federal information, won’t win more contracts than companies who do nothing.
What you SHOULD be doing
For the last 2.5 years, TOPSTONE has been developing a simplified program to help businesses align with this DFARS supplement. Not because we could see the future, but because this guidance went into effect way back in 2013 and no one did anything. The guidance was literally ignored by defense contractors.
The struggle many business owners have is understanding what NIST 800-171 means, how to apply it, and more importantly, where to start.
First, you need to realize that NIST 800-171 is about so much more than just your technology. I know this because I authored the 110 questions in our client intake self-assessment form. That’s what I mean when I say ‘simplified’. We took the security controls and did the geek–>business speak interpretation for our clients, and then presented the controls in simple yes/no questions.
Not surprising, many of these questions are about people, policy, and process, which you just can’t fix with more stuff that goes blinky-blinky in a rack.
What you need is a plan that allows you to determine how to get started, what you should assess, and most importantly, after you figure that out, what you should do first, second, and third.
You’ve got questions, and we’ve got answers. Through our MORTAR program, we can help you get to the point where your proposals boast your cybersecurity operational readiness in big bold print, and you’ll have the artifacts to back it up.
Thanks for reading!
