False Alarm in CyberWar
by Andrew McCaskey
I’m firmly on the side of the Air Force – and given their mission in protecting the assets of the country, I’m glad to see that they are aggressively preparing for a conflict in cyberspace that never comes.
I’m no fan of botnets and practices that destroy the openness and trust on the net. But, if there are those with capability and motivation to confront the US in this sphere, then there is an obligation to prepare in this dimension as well.
It’s a lot better to have it out in the open, for debate and political oversight than to have it buried in some Black Intelligence program. The effect is the same, and some degree of transparency is an obligation to US citizens.
There sure has not been enough of that lately.
