With Standup of New NSA Cyber Security Division, Nakasone Emphasizes Prevention

摘要

The National Security Agency last week officially stood up its new Cybersecurity Directorate that is charged with preventing and eradicating cyber security threats to national security systems and infrastructure and will be focused on outcomes, integration and customer focus, Army Gen. Paul Nakasone, director of the agency, said on Wednesday. Nakasone said he’s emphasizing the “prevent” part of his vision because it’s the “foundation to everything we do,” adding that “If you can’t secure your weapons, your data and your weapons systems,” eradication “doesn’t matter” because enemies will find a way into the nation’s systems.
