CNN coverage of "Cyber Shockwave," conceived and executed by the Bipartisan Policy Center along with experts in cybersecurity, simulated such an attack on Tuesday.Cyber Shockwave posed two scenarios. In the first, a March Madness mobile application spread malware from cell phone to cell phone. In the second, the U.S. electricity grid crashed for reasons not immediately known.
Officials who participated in the event included: Secretary of Homeland Security Michael Chertoff as National Security Advisor; Director of National Intelligence John Negroponte as Secretary of State; White House Homeland Security Advisor Fran Townsend as Secretary of Homeland Security; Director of Central Intelligence John McLaughlin as Director of National Intelligence; Senator Bennett Johnston as Secretary of Energy; Deputy Attorney General Jamie Gorelick as Attorney General; and White House Press Secretary Joe Lockhart as Counselor to the President.

  • Thanks Credo, I think I get what you mean. Regarding the rating of videos I rate based on the information and its value, not on whether it makes me feel good or not. No doubt other people do the opposite. I don't always establish my position in advance, but putting "Attack" in quotes highlights it is the drill organisers term. Others might substitute the words "False Flag". The title should raise a red flag of concern as Net neutrality comes under "Attack". All the best....

  • Thanks to whoever 1 star'd my last 3 vids just after posting. Looks lke a pattern developing....

  • wow... they are really trying to scare us into giving them control of our internet... It's becoming laughable...

  • This could be the next false flag where the new world order stages a cyber attack when someone hack into intelligence agency data bases and corrupt them. But in reality it will be a self-inflicted wound....

    The new world order is going to keep staging events so people really shouldn't be too surprised when they do.

  • Its only a data virus. You idiots. Hahaha

  • @varickwt hear, hear!! You hit the nail on the head.

  • If they really are concerned and IF the electric grids, etc can be affected thru the Net, then they it would not take them long to set up some private networks if they wanted to. A realistic simulation then would be 1) test the private networks and make sure they work. 2) TRY to shut everything down with a pre-announcement to users in USA. 3)operate the private network while the Net is down. It can be done so they don't need to take over ppls phones, email, etc. as they wish to.

  • Holy shit. This is so unrealistic...

  • Alarmist propoganda extremism at its most horrid display!!! frightful!!

  • SUCH FUCKING BULLSHIT. MOSSAD CIA.

  • Oh noes! The internet is scary. We'd better give the government complete control over it for our safety. Also, think of the children!!!1!!

  • Holy shit hstone39, that makes sence.
