Each has an agenda but together a proactive offense, new concept, and ongoing defense could be developed. Passivity is NOT the answer.

I think also having a disaster plan prepared in the event of a cyber attack is even more important. We all know what it is like to lose our hard drives...imagine that happening at a national level. It would be devastating. It seems to be part of the American mindset to address disasters/emergencies only after they occurred (think of all the actions taken to address future 9/11 and Katrinas - after they occurred, we developed plenty of plans and protocols). Anyways, we need to be prepared to defend against preemptive cyber attacks but we also need to be ready for the aftermath. Cyber security has to be 100% priority.
