Wikileaks is a trap! June 10, 2010 LIEBERMAN, COLLINS, CARPER UNVEIL MAJOR CYBERSECURITY BILL TO MODERNIZE, STRENGTHEN, AND COORDINATE CYBER DEFENSES
WASHINGTON -- Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee Chairman Joe Lieberman, ID-Conn., Ranking Member Susan Collins, R-Me., and Federal Financial Management Subcommittee Chairman Tom Carper, D-De., Thursday introduced comprehensive legislation to modernize, strengthen, and coordinate the security of federal civilian and select private sector critical infrastructure cyber networks. The Protecting Cyberspace as a National Asset Act of 2010, S.3480, would create an Office of Cyber Policy in the White House with a director accountable to the public who would lead all federal cyberspace efforts and devise national cyberspace strategy. A National Center for Cybersecurity and Communications within the Department of Homeland Security, also led by a director accountable to the public, would enforce cybersecurity policies throughout the government and the private sector. The bill would also establish a public/private partnership to set national cyber security priorities and improve national cyber security defenses. The Committee will hold a hearing on the legislation June 15, 2010. "The Internet may have started out as a communications oddity some 40 years ago but it is now a necessity of modern life, and sadly one that is under constant attack," said Lieberman. "It must be secured, -- and today, Senators Collins, Carper, and I have introduced a bill which we believe will do just that. The Protecting Cyberspace as a National Asset Act of 2010 is designed to bring together the disjointed efforts of multiple federal agencies and departments to prevent cyber theft, intrusions, and attacks across the federal government and the private sector. The bill would establish a clear organizational structure to lead federal efforts in safeguarding cyber networks. And it would build a public/private partnership to increase the preparedness and resiliency of those private critical infrastructure cyber networks upon which our way of life depends. "For all of its 'user-friendly' allure, the Internet can also be a dangerous place with electronic pipelines that run directly into everything from our personal bank accounts to key infrastructure to government and industrial secrets. Our economic security, national security and public safety are now all at risk from new kinds of enemies -- cyber-warriors, cyber-spies, cyber-terrorists and cyber-criminals. "The need for this legislation is obvious and urgent." Collins said: "As our national and global economies become ever more intertwined, cyber terrorists have greater potential to attack high-value targets. From anywhere in the world, they could disrupt telecommunications systems, shut down electric power grids, and freeze financial markets. With sufficient know-how, they could cause billions of dollars in damage and put thousands of lives in jeopardy. We cannot afford to wait for a "cyber 9/11" before our government finally realizes the importance of protecting our digital resources, limiting our vulnerabilities, and mitigating the consequences of penetrations of our networks. "Yet, for too long, our approach to cyber security has been disjointed and uncoordinated. Our vital legislation would fortify the government's efforts to safeguard America's cyber networks from attack. This bill would build a public/private partnership to promote national cyber security priorities and help prevent and respond to cyber attacks." Carper said: "Over the past few decades, our society has become increasingly dependent on the internet, including our military, government, and businesses of all kinds. While we have reaped enormous benefits from this powerful technology, unfortunately our enemies have identified cyber space as an ideal 21st century battlefield. We have to take steps now to modernize our approach to protecting this valuable, but vulnerable, resource. This legislation is a vital tool that America needs to better protect cyber space. It encourages the government and the private sector to work together to address this growing threat and provides the tools and resources for America to be successful in this critical effort."

  • The number 1 security threat to the USA is that of dual citizen Jews like Lieberman voting for issues that benefit Israel at the cost of US lives and liberties.

    The whole TSA issue, wikileaks issue and terrorsit attacks are the result of our sick association with that outlaw state of Israel.

    Had we followed G. Washington's advice regarding "Entangling alliances with none" for foreign policy issues, none of this would be necessary.

  • Lieberman. Zionist Jew scum!

  • @FWYGINOND why not!

  • Why is there so much antisemitism on here?

  • Lieberman is such a transparent shit bag. Zionist cunt.

  • Is it just me or did he basically run around each question, giving no definitave answer?

  • I read somewhere there are about 500 million non-police/military firearms in the United States. Exercising your right to bear arms implies an understanding of when it's appropriate to use them. The American people need to try mass peaceful public demonstrations in the streets of Philly, NYC, Boston, Detroit, LA, Portland, Seattle calling for the ousting of slime like Lieberman. If they are violently repressed, it would only be reasonable take things to the next level.

  • CNN did not accept the information from Wikileaks, becasue CNN is controled by the US Govenment.

  • ****BREAKING NEWS****

    We are seeing Joe Libermans Killswitch bill in full action, and in real time, right now in Egypt.

    Remember America, the Killswitch is for your protection, safety, security and to safeguard you from Terrorist. Homeland Security fully supports the bill and so does President Mubarak of Egypt. Wake up America, the Amerikans are coming, the Amerikans are coming. Velcome to za Homeland

  • @itchyundies I am an American and I agree.

  • Wikileaks is just another version of 911 to take away the rights and freedom of the people to control the masses.

  • @bananabrule Hear, hear! Why don't they put out a warrant for G.W. Bush? Assange, despite being a paranoid cheater, should learn from the leaders and act dumb or victimized like Geert Wilders.
