The grill: Eugene Kaspersky

18.10.2011

There are several countries that have announced they have military cyber forces. Every country that has resources to allocate for this to develop a cyber weapon is very dangerous for others because the Internet has no borders. I don't want to place China first in the list of countries that has threats because we don't have enough information about China, as their government doesn't report to us.

We are living in an age of new technology with the help of hacking which to some people does not look serious. When the Wright Brothers invented the aeroplane, the US military did not take the technology seriously. It was the French who took the technology seriously.

It doesn't look like we could have a war in the Internet, but with the help of IT systems it is possible to have sabotage. After that there is the industrial environment which are managed by IT systems. There will be more strict government regulation for infrastructure.
