It means that the IT person is a Mega Man fan!
Long ago I had a bunch of servers under my command that I named after the bosses. Drillman, Dustman, Pharaohman, etc. and the main machine I connected from was Dr. Cossack. Everybody else I knew was using the typical Greek or Egyptian god names, I couldn't abide.
I've got two DEI Surveillance Vans in range. Yes, it was very funny a decade ago, when someone else did it.
There's also a DEI Surveillance Sedan which I do give credit for, that's a decent riff.
