Cyber Storm tests US defences
The US has been accused of being unprepared for a determined attack by hackers. Cyber Storm reportedly not only tested against attacks by hackers, but also by bloggers – who deliberately spread misinformation in the exercise.
The FBI, CIA, Red Cross, IT companies and state and foreign governments also played a role in responding to the mock attacks. It was carried out on secure computers in the basement of the Secret Service in Washington DC. There was no impact on the Internet.
