The National Strategy to Secure Cyberspace mandates that planners “improve coordination and capabilities for attack attribution and response.” With regular attacks now targeting the U.S. military, are each of the services adequately prepared to address the threat of cyber warfare? Is Congress allocating enough resources to deal with the problem? How mature are the military's defensive measures, and what type of offensive cyber capabilities should the Department of Defense seek to acquire? Join us as our panelists address the important question of cyber warfare and what impact it will have on our national security.
