Counterterrorism, The Journal of Counterterrorism & Homeland Security International, a quarterly magazine for law enforcement, government and the military worldwide, published my piece on the deadly serious subject of cyber warfare.I attended the opening of the International Spy Museum's Weapons of Mass Disruption gallery (seen in above photo) in Washington D.C. and I heard former intelligence officials and experts in the cyber technology field discuss the threat of cyber warfare.
The speakers included Philip Reitinger, the Deputy Under Secretary of National Protection and Programs Directorate in the Department of Homeland Security, Admiral Mike McConnell, former Director of National Intelligence, R. James Woolsey, former CIA Director, and several others.
The gallery illustrates how spies, terrorists and criminals can turn electrical power lines into battle lines. Cyber warfare can bring a nation to its knees by someone, as Spy Museum Chairman Milton Maltz put it, with a weapon no more sinister than a common laptop computer.
