I honestly shouldn’t weigh in here, but I will. If we look at the threat matrix, the highest threat to the US comes from internet hacking of the electrical grid by way of introduction of a Stuxnet type virus. Interesting thing about that is that there are two likely attackers, N. Korea and Iran and Iran is the number one threat.

Stuxnet was written by US government employees.

Whither the threat?

Iran or N. Korea; notice I said a “Stuxnet type” virus meaning I’d have to believe Iranian or N. Korean programmers can reverse engineer that type bug and send it back our way.
