Think about this, pretty much every PC and all the associated gear such as hard drives, monitors and thumb drives used on DoD systems are produced in China. What are the implications? Built in worm in thumb drives? Built in viruses? What malware might be lurking on the products the DoD buys from China? Hey, just asking.
One last thought. Until a few years ago one of the US premier test and evaluation organizations used Mac’s. They made that choice locally. When the DoD installed it’s own system Mac was replaced by Macroshaft.

Having worked in IT, and studied cyber-security, I can tell you that the majority of internal systems are usually using very weak security. As mentioned by Ptsfp, passwords are kept simple and rarely if ever changed.
Most have the idea that as long as they put firewalls up to protect them from the outside, that they are safe.
The Network admin in Calif. proved that completely false, and he wasn’t truly being malicious.
Additionally, I remember hearing a report a few yrs back on cyber attacks against DOD targets. The real surprise in the report was that for every attack on a directly owned DOD site, there were 2 or 3 on contractors for the DOD, contractors that had a trust relationship with the DOD computer systems. Which meant that as soon as the contractors networks were compromised, the DOD information they had access to was also compromised.
Ultimately, it isn’t the flashy cyberwars with estonia, or against any other country, the real threat is the patient, invisible attack that sneaks in, stays as long as necessary to get as much information as possible, and then leaves.
“Ruining” hardware in order to cover ones tracks has become easier too. Every datacenter expects a hard drive crash every so often. So what if that crash just wiped out all evidence of an intruder in the system.
I could keep going…but don’t want to bore you too much.

Mr Coleman you are right and have been right. The business world is just now beginning to wake up and realize the threat that a cyber attack poses to their organization. For the small and medium size business, a cyber attack could very well drive them out of business. The briefings on this blog have given me all the evidence I need and I am taking action.

Do you have a source citation for the CRS report? The $226 billion figure sounds about as scientific as most similar estimates…

Overall I think Russia and China have screwed the pooch.
They spent a great deal of time and energy making these systems to infiltrate and jam computer systems, and then uses them foolishly tipping their hand.
“Jamming” a country over a statue? Jamming a country the size of Connecticut in a war they could not possibly lose?
Stupidity.
In the end we will have better computer hacking and jamming than they ever will.…

As a systems administrator within DOD, I can tell you that foreign government regularly and frequently attack our cyber networks. At one time I managed a DOD firewall, and it’s logs almost on a weekly basis would show HUGH port scans and attempts to get in. There is a MASSIVE campaign of cyber warefare that is taking place daily against DOD.
