Cyber Warfare
1. The virus Slammer effected tons of networks
2. After 9/11 Silicon Valley web sites notice strange visits to there websites.
3. Intrusions or casing-feeling for weak spots
4. 3 nodes if hit can destroy communications and power distribution areas in America.
5. Everyone who wants to know about cyber attacks should talk to one guy, John Arquilla.
6. Zombies can hotwire multiple computers together to create more computing power than you can possibly imagine.
7. The code red virus happened in July, 2001-The virus if successful would have sent tons of pings to the white house web site and overloaded the system.
8. The Virus w32-nimda was meant to rip through the financial sector of America.
9. The DOD made a program called the Eligible Receiver which was made to attack the pentagon.
10. Moonlight Maze was found after two years in the pentagon. the Pentagon was under surveillance and they didn't even know it. They traced the connection back to a mainframe in the Soviet Union.
11. Government higher ups are stupid idiots saying that compared to flesh and blood warfare, that cyber warfare is not a threat we should focus on.
12. Cyber warfare has been done and accomplished in most of the current wars done by the Americans.
Now I think the goverment is stupid beyond belief. I mean how is cyber warfare not as important as regular warfare. Just because the damage isnt as physical dosen't mean it dosen't exist. The damage can happen to a hospital, allot of people can die just the same as a bullet to the head. I swear if the goverment was anymore idiotic.
