Cybersecurity Update – Tune in weekdays at 30 minutes past the hour for the latest cybersecurity news on The Federal Drive with Tom Temin and Amy Morris (6-10 a.m.) and DorobekInsider with Chris Dorobek (3-5 p.m.). according to two experts — Lt. Col. David Hollis, a senior policy analyst/planner with the Office of the Undersecretary of Defense for Intelligence — and Datherine Hollis, who is is on the Research Staff at the Institute for Defense Analysis specializing in cyberspace issues. In a column in Armed Forces Journal, they argue that the U-S government has very limited national-level experience, knowledge or policy guidance for fighting a netwar. In part, that is because the government has no past to learn from, much less envision how a national-level conflict would be fought. Countries are increasingly using cyber-space along with traditional war-fighting measures. But cyber-space is very different from traditional battlefields. One of the biggest differences is how quickly things can move on the Internet. The country needs to develop a full assessment of cyber-space operations, they say.
