US Unveils First International Cyber Security Strategy


From Lalit K Jha

Washington, May 17 (PTI) The Obama Administration has laid out plans for international cooperation in making the Internet more secure and has said that it will strike back to any hostile attack in cyberspace.

According to the policy document, the United States will, along with other nations, encourage responsible behavior and oppose those who would seek to disrupt networks and systems, thereby dissuading and deterring malicious actors, while reserving the right to defend these vital national assets as necessary and appropriate.

The White House made it clear the US would use its military might to strike back if it would come under a cyberattack that threatened national security.

"When warranted, the United States will respond to hostile acts in cyberspace as we would to any other threat to our country.
