The Wall Street Journal digs into a fast-growing worldwide Cybercrime issue. Europol’s European Cybercrime Centre supported 131 successful cyber operations last year, up from 72 operations in 2014, the agency said in a new report. Enterprising malware designers provide their tools to a vast criminal network…. There is evidence, in some cases, of a forensic […]
ISIL Leaders Being Killed, and Resources Drying Up!
My friend Chris Preble, vice president for defense and foreign policy studies at The Cato Institute, offers a progress report on the steady dismantlement of ISIL. A number of ISIL leaders have been killed by U.S. airstrikes, and its control over territory in Iraq and Syria is slipping away. The sources of revenue that it […]
Technology Looks to Stop a Dirty Bomb Before It Happens
DARPA’s SIGMA program undergoes real-world testing with state, federal and international partners to defend against radiological threats. A DARPA program aimed at preventing attacks involving radiological “dirty bombs” and other nuclear threats has successfully developed and demonstrated a network of smartphone-sized mobile devices that can detect the tiniest traces of radioactive materials. Combined with larger […]
Hackers Build First Ever Autonomous System to Find & Patch Software Vulnerabilities
It currently takes security specialists on average 312 days to discover software vulnerabilities. It can take weeks, months, and sometimes years for these vulnerabilities to be fixed across all exposed systems. That leaves plenty of time for malware, ransom-ware, and other malicious software to exploit these vulnerabilities and maximize damage. The Cyber Grand Challenge was designed to […]
A Festival of Death in Europe
I am aware of no one who does a better job of alerting Americans to the abject cancer of radical Islam than former CIA bin Laden unit chief Dr. Michael Scheuer. There is no question in my mind that any incoming American president should headline on his “America First” “Defend America at all Costs” team […]
When the Lights Go Out
Inflicting major disruptions to the electrical grid, whether by humans or natural causes, is not that difficult to imagine. It has already happened which you’ll learn more about in this excellent article, and series, by Rebecca Smith in The WSJ titled, “How America Could Go Dark.” I spent time this week speaking with an engineer […]
EMP Technology in the Hands of Terrorists
Arizona Rep. Trent Franks provides warning on Obama and his “faculty lounge advisors” ongoing efforts to dismantle our Missile Defense capabilities. The Obama Administration continues to ignore the growing, existential threat posed by Electromagnetic Pulse (EMP) technology in the hands of a terrorist enemy such as Iran and ISIS or in the hands of a […]
Bonfire of the Inanities
After the jihadi terrorist shooting in Orlando in which 49 people were murdered in cold blood and more than 50 injured, it would be reasonable to expect a serious debate about national security in America. Instead our leaders are spewing inanities, writes Jonah Goldberg in NRO. Before the blood had been mopped up in Orlando, […]
Kill or Be Killed
Michael Scheuer, former CIA bin Laden unit chief, knows a little about how to protect Americans. And Mike thinks our time may be running out. Before Obama, Hillary Clinton, and their party pit Americans against each other by cynically twisting the Islamic State’s Orlando victory into a so-called hate crime, and use it as a […]
What Obama Doesn’t Mention
On Sunday, after the savage slaughter in Orlando, President Obama talked about the need for gun control, the effect of the attack on the gay community, and the FBI’s investigation of the shooting as an act of terror. What President Obama did not mention, neither this time nor after the attacks in Fort Hood, Chattanooga, […]
