America facing growing cyber threat amidst its negligence to security measures

United States of America is facing growing cyber threat from the other countries. However, the authorities are not so active to tackle the problem. Once the country was very much interested to invade the other countries like the Latin America’s countries and the Muslim countries like Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Russia. It is cyber war what is more dangerous than the land, air and naval attacks. United States of America has no so prepared to combat this neo-style war that imposed by China and other countries. And getting this opportunity, opponent countries are consistently inflicting damage on the United States economy. Different survey reports unveil that every year US loses more intellectual property on government, university, and business network than all the intellectual property in the Library of Congress. Just this week, a massive cyber attack was carried by the antagonist countries that damaged the personal data of at least four million federal employees. Recently, we saw reports that how automobiles, which are being run more and more on computer technology, are vulnerable to cyber attack.The vulnerability of airplanes to cyber attack. A recent General Accountability Office report confirmed the vulnerability of aircraft to cyber attack and their on board systems of being hacked. In 1965, Gordon Moore, the co-founder of computer chip maker Intel, observed that the number of transistors on integrated circuits doubles every two years. “Moore’s Law” has not only remained constant for decades, but there have been similar rates of remarkable increases of technology. Cyber warfare is the most complicated national security threat that the U.S. has ever faced because technology is changing so quickly. In fact, the speed of change in the cyber technology realm is changing faster than the Pentagon and that of our broader national security apparatus’s ability to analyze and adapt. The five biggest banks in America have assets equivalent to 56% of America’s GDP. This is up from 43% in 2006. The “too big to fail banks” have only gotten bigger. Securing our financial system must be a top priority in the cyber war. Seven points may tighten the security of the USA. They are:-- 1. Increase support to the Air Force Research Laboratory and develop quantum computing with the generation of true random numbers on a chip. 2. Recruit cyber experts at home and abroad. US has only 1,000 people with the necessary skills to defend the country against the cyber attacks out of the 20,000-30,000 people required. 3. Provide national security scholarships to top computer science and data security measures in the United States. 4. Fight a preventive war against cyber terrorists. US must go after its enemy before the enemy can cause damage to the economy. 5. Follow the country of Georgia’s example and plant “booby traps” for cyber terrorists and hackers. 6. Ensure that US Cyber Command has the ability to coordinate with the private sector during a cyber attack. 7. Distinguish between cyber attacks from regimes like China and Russia versus Islamist regimes like Iran. The cyber threat to the United States is growing each day and is inflicting real damage to America, both economically and from a national security standpoint.
