Hi folks,
I'm looking for a DISA/DOD contact who feels that my issue has merit.
I've tried the DISA Helpdesk and have been told since I'm a commercial
entity with no affiliation with the DOD, they can't help me.
The issue at hand is that our /23 netblock has lost communication (at least
email TCP
There are DISA folks lurking here.
I had a similar issue where our block was labeled as residential by
their new firewall, and DISA front-desk isn't yet trained on this
mechanism so they can't help.
I escalated the issue to a lot of groups but in the end I gave up, too
much bureaucracy. The issue
Scott,
Thanks for responding. Unfortunately, I think my situation is a little
more dire, or at least involved. I probably should have said this before,

One option is you said you have companies that do business with the DOD.
Have one of them reach out to a contracting person about opening a ticket.

vs someone trying to communicate with family.
Normally the contracting peop
Thanks. That makes a little more sense to me. I know the questions DISA
asked me when I called them, and I couldn't imagine just having the
MIL-side email correspondent open a ticket directly with DISA. They would
likely be more overwhelmed than I was. I'll talk to a couple of my
customers who
The people at DISA you were dealing w/ aren't a Tier I service desk,
they're the service desk that lower service desks open tickets w/.
Think of DISA as a Tier I ISP and the normal .mil user as a residential
user.
See if one of your customers can put you in contact w/ their IT people
