We live in an age that is driven by information. Technological breakthroughs... are changing the face of war and how we prepare for war. Information war has no front line.

In sum, the U.S. homeland may no longer provide a sanctuary from outside attack. A panel of Defense Department experts recently warned the nation about the prospect of an electronic Pearl Harbor, a crippling sneak attack on the nation's defense and civilian information systems in which 'cyberterrorists' and other unknown assailants cripple the nation's, or the world's, computer-networked communications, financial, and national defense systems.
