Despite defense budget cuts the U.S. government is still expanding its cyber warfare capabilities, a fact not lost either on America’s adversaries or allies in undeclared but raging cyberwar. China’s cyber threat is nothing new, Russians are there too and evidence of cyber attacks and new participants piles on at a frightening rate. Cyber warefare is becoming the weapon of choice in what could be termed as The Great Game of the 21 century.
“The recent intrusions at the International Monetary Fund, the U.S. defense contractor Lockheed Martin, and at Citibank join those that occurred in the oil and gas sector, at NASDAQ, and at Google as further, troubling instances of a widespread and serious phenomenon. Even some companies employing sophisticated commercial defenses have fallen victim to intrusions that have compromised services and stolen intellectual property,” said Deputy Secretary of Defense William J. Lynn, speaking at the 28th Annual International Workshop on Global Security in Paris. To respond the cyber threat the U.S. Department of Defense (DOD) and Department of Homeland Security (DHS) have established a pilot program with leading private defense contractors and ISPs called DIB Cyber Pilot and that is only one of the many federal government programs driving the cyber security market.
Over the past few years a number of cyber attacks perpetrated by criminals, hackers and foreign nations against the U.S. Government’s networks rose sharply.
“Among the greatest concerns that impacts both military and civilian realms is cybersecurity,” James G. Stavridis, Navy Adm., NATO’s supreme allied commander for Europe and commander of U.S. European Command, told the Senate Armed Services Committee. “Today, we have a billion devices that are accessing the Internet,” he said. “Our economies are entangled in this Internet sea, and it’s an outlaw sea. Nothing exists in the norms of behavior. There is a military aspect to it, but it’s all of society. At some point, there needs to be a very global conversation on this challenge.”
Despite the bleak budgetary environment, the U.S. government sector witnesses a blossoming of investments in cyber security technologies.
“Federal agencies have spent more on cyber security than the entire GDP of North Korea, who some have speculated is to be involved with some of this cyber attacks,” said Senator Thomas. L. Carper. “The issue of Cyber Warfare is not science fiction anymore. It’s reality.”
The short- to long-term federal cyber security investments will be driven:
- by ever-increasing number and severity of cyber attacks,
- by dramatic expansion in computer interconnectivity and the exponential increase in the data flows and computing power of the government networks;
- by perception of the U.S. adversaries that the United States is dependent on information technology and that this dependency constitutes an exploitable weakness;
- by developments in the existing cyber security approaches and technologies and emergence of new technologies and approaches.
