From the BBC:
the US Air Force’s chief information officer Lt Gen William Shelton, said the US relies heavily on industry efforts to respond to cyber threats which, he says, “does not keep pace with the threat”
I find that statement very odd. I haven’t seen the document sited but in my experience the government itself lags behind defense contractors who lag behind the commercial industry. Therefore, I’m unsure of the practical solution for the government to keep pace. Thoughts?
NOTE: the “lag” operator above is a generalization. The government has some of the most technical people, as do defense contractors, and industry has some duds. My generalization is only based on personal experience and more relates to government process and efficiency negatively impacting the overall technical culture.
