Former White House terrorism advisor warns of need to prepare for cyberattacks | NJ.com: "Law enforcement in New Jersey and around the country needs to prepare for cyberattacks, former White House security advisor Richard Clarke said today at a New Brunswick conference.
Cybercrime is sometimes undetected, insufficiently reported and almost never successfully prosecuted, Clarke said.
And what starts out as a crime could easily escalate into cyber warfare with “a couple of keystrokes,” he said.
Clarke, now a security consultant, said hackers have already accessed computers for high-ranking government leaders and stolen the plans for the F-35, an upcoming American fighter jet.
“We’re very good at the offense. We’re very, very bad at the defense,” he said."
