The partnership’s total income is $360,000, which was earned equally over the taxable year. How much income and expense would Casey be allocated under the proration of partnership income method?
Thrоwbаck Attаck: Chinese hаckers steal plans fоr the F-35 fighter in a supply chain heist As cyberattacks оn national critical infrastructure and private industry increase, the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) introduced the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) to standardize cybersecurity practices for defense contractors. This process is critical, as demonstrated by China's 2007 theft of sensitive F-35 Lightning II documents, which was confirmed by Edward Snowden’s 2015 leak. Snowden's documents revealed that a Lockheed Martin subcontractor data breach allowed China to access F-35 designs, contributing to the development of their J-31 stealth fighter. Supply chain attacks like this are becoming more frequent and damaging, as seen in high-profile cases such as the SolarWinds and Kaseya attacks. According to Ryan Heidorn, co-founder of Steel Root, adversaries are stealing intellectual property at an alarming rate, targeting large primes like Lockheed Martin and smaller suppliers that may lack sophisticated cybersecurity. The CMMC aims to curb this issue by ensuring DoD contractors implement strict cybersecurity practices. While many companies already face these requirements, CMMC enforces compliance through assessments and certification, making it a critical mechanism to prevent the loss of sensitive information. The goal is to protect valuable defense technology, like the F-35, from further theft as adversaries like China continue to target critical U.S. systems. In the context of the 2007 theft of sensitive F-35 Lightning II technical documents and other similar supply chain attacks, how could the PASTA (Process for Attack Simulation and Threat Analysis) methodology enhance defense contractors' and DoD vendors' overall security process to prevent future data breaches?
