Freedom of the Cyber Seas – “How lessons from the U.S. government’s response to pirates in the early 1800s can help the next president of the United States improve information security,” Aaron Turner & Michael Assante, April 10, 2008.
“In modern times, the nearly ubiquitous availability of powerful computing systems, along with the proliferation of high-speed networks, have converged to create a new version of the high seas–the cyber seas. The Internet has the potential to significantly impact the United States’ position as a world leader. Nevertheless, for the last decade, U.S. cybersecurity policy has been inconsistent and reactionary. The private sector has often been left to fend for itself, and sporadic policy statements have left U.S. government organizations, private enterprises and allies uncertain of which tack the nation will take to secure the cyber frontier.”
