Existential threat to US — always a rubbish statement

Posted in Cyberterrorism at 12:32 pm by George Smith

Your host did an interview for Voice of America radio this morning.

Sparked by the circulating news of malware on the Creech AFB network used in Predator drone missions, it unavoidably got into the area of cyberattack aimed at the US.

Which I’ve discussed for years.

One thing that always gets asked now has to do with absurd claims made by various security people and arms of the US government, that cyberattacks pose an existential threat to the country.

This is rubbish and always has been. But more people need to say it on radio and TV news, so I did for VOA.
