Reporting from the pages of The Verge Liputan6.com quoted on Wednesday (02/12/2013), Obama said the U.S. will face increasing challenges against cyber attacks. On this occasion, Obama also asked the support of the U.S. Congress to strengthen cyber defenses.
"In order (Congress) passed the Act to provide greater capacity to secure our network and face the attack," said Obama.
Obama revealed that U.S. foes target for sabotage against a number of public facilities and special facilities. "The power we, our financial institutions, and systems of our air traffic controllers," said Obama.
According to Foreign Policy, the rule is the development of the "Enhanced Cybersecurity Services", which is a program to share information about cyber challenge, launched in May 2012. The program was developed by the Ministry of Defence and the Ministry of Internal Security. There are at least 17 companies involved in the program.
Government regulation of cyber-security is actually designed to be a "weapon" executive, because Bill was passed in Congress failed. When is Cyber Intelligence Sharing and Protecting Act (CISPA) or a bill that also regulates intelligence in cyberspace controversy, so the U.S. Congress unwilling to give approval.
Therefore, the bill was not considered to limit the powers of government, as well as enterprises, to access and share information about cyber. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
