What do you mean information system?

If you're talking about how they get information, its a mixture of undercover operators, and electronic subterfuge.

 

If not, then what are you asking?

This seems like a question best fielded to your dad, the system admin of the system you are trying to ask us.  Why ask us instead of him?

oh, thats just simply a peice of hardware owned by the us, being supplied it seems for official reason to the current holder, aka your father. does he happen to work for the united states gov' in an official manner, if not... then id question him about it, because thats one heck of a bluff if he doesnt.

From what I gathered here is what he might do for the navy: software engineer, system engineer or an "anti-hacker" (think like someone who tries to prevent hackers).
