Cyber guerra?

Cyber war is coming, the impact could be huge CBS News reports that cyber war is a reality that, according to cyber experts, the US will have to be prepared for - and soon. Admiral Mike McConnell, Former Chief of National Intelligence says that the US are extremely dependent on the power grid and that they are not prepared for cyber attacks that would jeopardize it.

Des personnes ont même perdu leur travail à cause du contenu sur Facebook, nous voulions faire quelque chose sur ce sujet" , expliquent les cybermilitants. HACKING ? P...
