<h2>The World Changed on September 11, 2001</h2>
<p>What changed on 9/11 was the realization that we can be attacked right=
here
at home. And with that realization came once again the subject of <i>info=
war</i>
and its partner in crime <i>cyberterrorism</i>. You've heard the new=
s, read
the articles, and seen the movie—and it goes something like this:</p=
>
<p><i>It's June, the children are out of school, and as highways and=
airports fill with vacationers, rolling power outages hit sections of Los=
Angeles, Chicago, Washington, and New York. An airliner is mysteriously k=
nocked
off the flight control system and crashes in Kansas.</i></p>
<p><i>Parts of the 911 service in Washington fail. Supervisors at the Dep=
artment
of Defense discover that their email and telephone services are disrupted=
=2E
Officers aboard a U.S. Navy cruiser find that their computer systems have=
been
attacked.</i></p>
<p><i>As incidents mount, the stock market drops precipitously, and panic=
surges
through the population.</i></p>
<p>Is this "electronic Pearl Harbor" myth or reality?</p>
<p>Much of the scenario above—except for the plane, stock market cra=
sh, and
panic—actually occurred in 1997, when 35 hackers hired by the Nation=
al
Security Agency launched simulated attacks on the U.S. electronic
infrastructure.</p>
<p>The exercise, called "Eligible Receiver," achieved "roo=
t
level" access in 36 of the Department of Defense's 40,000 netwo=
rks.
The simulated attack also "turned off" sections of the U.S. pow=
er
grid; "shut down" parts of the 911 network in Washington, D.C.,=
and
other cities; and gained access to systems aboard a Navy cruiser at sea. =
The
results of the exercise confirmed that in a software-driven world, an ene=
my need
not invade the territory—or the air above the territory—of a co=
untry
to control or damage that country's resources.</p>
