America rethinks its strategy in the Wild West of cyberspace

been a phisherman’s friend. Millions of professionals are at home and online, adjusting to new routines and anxious about their jobs. That makes them perfect marks: apt to click on an email that purports to be from their boss or a supplier asking for payment. Law-enforcement officials in many countries have reported a rise in cybercrime since the pandemic started.and Department of Homeland Security, not all such attacks come from gangs or individuals looking to make a quick buck.

The National Defence Authorisation Act of 2019, which sets the Pentagon’s budget, set up a commission to rethink cyber-defence. The Cyberspace Solarium Commission, named after Project Solarium, Dwight Eisenhower’s effort in 1953 to create a durable cold-war strategy, and headed by Angus King, an independent senator from Maine, and Mike Gallagher, a Republican congressman from Wisconsin, had the misfortune to release its recommendations on March 11th, just before America went into lockdown.

The commission recommends declaring some private servers, such as those for the energy, financial and telecoms industries, critical infrastructure. They would receive enhanced government monitoring in exchange for meeting more stringent security standards.with help from other agencies including the’s British counterpart,, has a similar system.

The more aggressive posture was road-tested during America’s mid-term elections. Cyber Command attacked servers belonging to Russia’s Internet Research Agency, the company that sowed social-media discord in 2016, and sent text and email messages to Russian operatives warning them that America was tracking them—the digital equivalent of a horse’s head in the bed.

Maybe if the 'intelligence' letters hadn't spent decades degrading IT security, so they could spy on everyone else, we wouldn't have this problem, because our systems would be secure enough against cyber attacks. This is a self created problem.

Kind of sounds like it’s approach to protest.
