US Cyber Security Agency Plan After Sony Hack

Written By Unknown on Kamis, 12 Februari 2015 | 00.12

A new cyber intelligence agency is being created in the US after the "game changing" attack on Sony Pictures.

There is currently no single government unit responsible for co-ordinating cyber attack responses - but that is about to change.

President Barack Obama's homeland security advisor - Lisa Monaco - says the new agency will pool and spread data on cyber breaches which she said are increasingly large and sophisticated.

Recent hacking attacks on Sony, Hope Depot and Target have led Mr Obama to move cyber security to the top of his 2015 agenda.

The Cyber Threat Intelligence Integration Centre is designed to "fill the gaps" in US cyber defences.

Last year's hack of Sony - reportedly by North Korea - saw data stolen, computers disrupted, and the studio forced to halt the release of a satirical film about the country's leader Kim Jong-Un.

Emails between executives were also leaked, and in recent days co-chairman Amy Pascal announced she would be standing down.

She had earlier apologised for "insensitive and inappropriate" comments in her messages.

Reuters quoted a White House official as saying the Sony incident had been a "game changer".

At the moment, cybersecurity responsibility is spread across the National Security Agency, Department of Homeland Security, the FBI and the US military's Cyber Command.

The President will host a "cyber summit" with industry and government leaders at Stanford University in California on Friday.
