Development of cyber policy remains elusive despite widespread support

摘要

There is widespread agreement within industry and government that the United States needs to strengthen its position for deterring cyberattacks from foreign adversaries, yet the process for developing such a widely supported policy remains unresolved even after years of debate, legislative action and an administration intent on demonstrating a get-tough resolve in countering cyber threats. The lack of an effective U.S. deterrence policy negotiated with like-minded allies was highlighted in a recent speech by Sen. Mark Warner (D-VA), billed as a "New Doctrine for Cyberwarfare and Information Operations."
