Federal cybersecurity boondoggle: The Software Assurance Marketplace (SWAMP)

President Obama’s proposed Cybersecurity National Action Plan (CNAP) called for $19 billion for cybersecurity as part of the 2017 fiscal year federal budget. In February, I wrote a blog about President Obamas proposed cybersecurity plan. Im troubled by the fact that federal cybersecurity programs seem to have a life of their own with little oversight or ROI benefits. I often cite the Department of Homeland Security’s Einstein project as an example of this type of government cybersecurity waste. While the SWAMP was announced with lots of fanfare, it failed to attract a significant user base.”]
