the internet is shared critical
infrastructure for everyone on Earth
it's not supposed to be a domain of
warfare you know we're not supposed to
be uh putting our economy on the front
lines of a Battleground but that's
increasingly what's happening
today you think about how the military
looks at cyberspace today they actually
look at it as a domain of warfare
comparable to land and sea and the air
and outer space and they're looking at
cyberspace as a way to both attack their
enemies and spy on them but also a place
where they can be attacked and they can
be spied on in fact many cyber attacks
occur without being noticed uh and most
cyber attacks occur without the
government having any idea that they're
taking place the advantage is always
going to go to the attacker because if
you're defending your network you know
and they let's say you know you're
you're a large Industrial company and
you've got 70,000 computers in your
company that are connected to the
internet that's 70,000 points of access
that you have to defend against the guy
who's trying to get in through your
system only has to find one and
frequently will look for a vulnerability
in some software that you're running
that you or even the manufacturer
doesn't even know exists the American
people have not yet decided what it is
they want their government to do or what
it is they will allow their government
to do to defend them in the Cyber
domain we're spending billions of
dollars creating this new kind of
warfare capability ility and yet there's
been no discussion in public uh about
the strategy for using it uh about the
issues that arise in that strategy uh so
I think we would benefit by a public
discussion now of the strategy uh
involved with cyber War but we're not
getting
it
