The current emphasis is on intelligence gathering and defending U.S. electronic security, but some officials think the military should know how to attack other nations' computer systems. Igniting a provocative new debate, senior military officials are pushing the Pentagon to go on the offensive in Cyberspace by developing the ability to attack other nations' computer systems, rather than concentrating on defending America's electronic security. ...

What does the "e" stand for in e-learning? For many students it stands for "easy" – not in the academic sense but because you can work from home, or anywhere else with internet access. Actually the "e" stands for electronic – students use digital study materials, usually on the internet, and communicate with one another and tutors online, through discussion groups and email. ...

One of the fascinating things about networks is what goes on behind the scenes. Few people are aware of the mass of filtering, monitoring and eavesdropping that takes place across international, or even enterprise, networks. We often imagine that we're surfing an open network. In fact, nothing could be further from the truth. So I was particularly interested to hear Rob Carolina assert that the Cyberspace Frontier has now closed. Rob is one of the finest and most experienced lawyers operating in the IT and information security field. He doesn't make statements like that lightly. In fact, Rob first announced this in a recent address to the first Royal Holloway Information Security Group Alumni Conference. But I didn't hear this until I ran into him at this week's Gartner IT Security Summit. His point is that the Internet now has borders, and has entered an age of de-globalisation. Governments, law enforcement officials, lawyers, judges, and policy makers have caught up with the Internet and brought it back to Earth. It's organised around geographic borders. You get different results if you access the same news sites from different countries.  The big question is whether this is a temporary relapse or a permanent state. I suggest the former. The information age needs no perimeters. Asserting national borders is merely the last gasp of an outdated, though powerful network of ancient institutions.   ...

Nothing against the General, but there are some fundamental flaws here : Uncle Sam is looking for a few good computer hackers. The U.S. military needs a two-edged cyber capability that can not only defend its .mil and .smil domains from outside attacks but, if necessary, launch cyber attacks against intruders. To do that, the individual services need to recruit and train more cyber-qualified personnel, Air Force Gen. Kevin Chilton, chief the U.S. Strategic Command, said today. The military is dependent on its .mil and .smil domains for everything from e-mail exchanges to employment of its nuclear arsenal. StratCom’s vast portfolio includes operating and defending those domains. For starters, every one of the general’s predecessors going back more than a decade has said the same thing. The fact that this refrain is still repeated is a not-so-subtle indication that a long-standing need is not being met. We can have a side-bar on the inherent difficulties associated with trying to recruit people with “‘l33t skillz” into the military if you like, but that’s almost beside the point. Secondly, there is this prevailing assumption that we can achieve “dominance” in Cyberspace like we have in meat-space. Yet, to the best of my knowledge, no one has demonstrated that the monstrous power of any hierarchical or military force can withstand an onslaught from a distributed cadre of otherwise undisciplined geeks. This is not building a weapon f ...
