[EAS] Homeland Security Staff locked out of computers?

Apparently WWV is scheduled to be down for a couple of days for
electrical maintenance - then I saw this story today:

It crossed my mind to wonder if their PIV servers used something like
this for their network timebase?

and....perhaps someone forgot to use an alternate NTP source, so the
time was off enough that the cards couldn't be 'verified' ?

Unintended consequences?
