  20. Cyberespionage Stealing commercial or military secrets “There’s no such thing as ‘secure’ any more. The most sophisticated adversaries are going to go unnoticed on our networks. We have to build our systems on the assumption that adversaries will get in. We have to, again, assume that all the components of our system are not safe, and make sure we’re adjusting accordingly.” Debora Plunkett, NSA Director Quoted in “NSA Switches to Assuming Security Has Always Been Compromised”

  21. Cyberattacks “… cyber weapons are: a) effective; b) much cheaper than traditional weapons; c) difficult to detect; d) difficult to attribute to a particular attacker …; e) difficult to protect against …; f) can be replicated at no extra cost. What’s more, the seemingly harmless nature of these weapons means their owners have few qualms about unleashing them, with little thought for the consequences. Eugene Kaspersky June 2012 http://eugene.kaspersky.com/2012/06/14/the-flame-that-changed-the-world/
