WASHINGTON – The Pentagon unveiled its strategy Thursday for defending critical networks and responding to growing threats in cyberspace.
“In the 21st Century, bits and bytes can be as threatening as bullets and bombs,” Deputy Defense Secretary William Lynn said in a speech accompanying the release of the cyberspace strategy document.
“Keystrokes originating in one country can impact the other side of the globe in the blink of an eye.”
The “Department of Defense Strategy for Operating in Cyberspace” calls for the Pentagon to treat cyberspace as an operational domain, like land, air, sea and space.
