support the cybersecurity act of 2012. i appreciate this committee's support of the cybersecurity efforts. your sustained attention to this issue and the leadership you have shown in bringing a bill forward to strengthen and improve our cybersecurity authorities. i also appreciate and want to emphasize the urgency of this situation. indeed, the contrast between the urgent need to respond to the threats we face in this area on the one hand, and the repressed desire for more deliberation and sensitivity to regulatory burdens on the other, reminds me as several of you have suggested of lessons we learned from the 9/11 attacks. as the 9/11 commission noted, those attacks resulted in hindsight from a failure of imagination. because we failed to anticipate the vulnerabilities of our security infrastructure. there is no failure of imagination when it comes to cybersecurity. we can see the own abilities. we are experiencing the attacks and we know that this legislation would materially improve our ability to address the threat. no

last before the comprehensive cybersecurity global -- is enacted into law. time is not on our side. to me, it feels like september 10, 2011 and the question is whether we will act to prevent a cyber9/11 before it happens instead of reacting after it happens. .. a very damaging impact on our economic prosperity because extremely valuable intellectual property is being stolen regularly, buy people and individuals and groups in countries abroad that is being replicated without the initial cost of research done by american companies meaning that jobs are being created abroad that would otherwise be created here so when we talk about cybersecurity there is an actual way which we are focused on the danger that an enemy will attack us through cyberspace, but as we think about how to grow our economy again and create jobs again, i've come to the conclusion that this is actually one of the most important things we can do, protect the treasures of america's intellectual innovation from being stolen by contenders abroad -- competitors abroad a very distinguished group

my motto for 2012 in cybersecurity is brace for impact.so i thank the committee and will be happy to take any questions. >> thank you, dr. lewis. your voice is an important one to listen to, and we will, we do. scott tyranny is our last witness today, corporate vice president, trustworthy computing group. that's a good job at the microsoft corporation. thanks for being here. >> thank you. chairman lieberman, senator akaka, thank you for the opportunity to appear at this important hearing on cybersecurity. in addition to my role as corporate vice president for trustworthy computing, i serve on the president's national security telecommunications advisory committee and was co-chair of the csis commission on cybersecurity for the 44th presidency. microsoft has a long history of focusing on cybersecurity. in 2002 bill gates launched our trustworthy computing initiative. as we celebrate the tenth anniversary of that effort, we are proud of both our progress and conscious of how much work remains to be done. while i.t. companies are providing be

. >> we are live this morning at george washington university for a discussion of cybersecurity legislation that is coming up in congress, a bipartisan group of senators passing legislation that will address cyber threat that is one of the main topics of discussion. >> ladies and gentlemen please welcome today's special guests. [ applause ] >> good morning. members of the washington community, trustees, students, faculty and staff of the george washington university, it's a pleasure to welcome you to this forum about a conversation on cybersecurity. it's particular honor this morning to welcome the former secretary of homeland security and former judge for the u.s. court of appeals, michael chertoff and former director of national intelligence and former director of the national security agency and a george washington a lumnist, mike mcconnell. both of these gentlemen have been leading figures in efforts to address the growing cyber threat to our national and economic security. they will be joined today by senior congressional staff to discuss pending legislation that is designed to shore u

workforce to protect and respond to national cybersecurity threats. in 2011, the department responded to a record number of disasters. so to ensure continued resilience to disasters, our next major mission, the president's budget focuses on a whole of community approach to emergency management. it includes resources for the disaster relief fund which provides a significant portion of the federal response to victims in federally declared disasters or emergencies and is funded largely through authority provided under the budget control act. this budget also continues to provide essential support to national and economic security by supporting the coast guard's operations in the polar regions and by continues to support i.c.e and cbp's efforts to protect u.s. intellectual property rights and collection of customs revenue. the fy 2013 budget proposal reflects this administration's strong commitment to protecting the homeland and the american people through the effective and efficient use of dhs resources. as outlined in my testimony today, we will continu

to deal with cybersecurity we need a lexicon.uch like quality, it isn't a one time thing like your 2000. we needed overtime. that's what education is critical. the second thing you must do is have public-private partnership. i co-chaired the peace. i tell you the legislative laws around this do not work for anybody. i think you've got to break public-private at different levels from intelligence to the people like me that tried to secure the u.s. government and others. the energy grids where department of energy works with those type of organization. and, finally, we must take a unified effort in public and private to defend his because it is an arms race and it is a pace as we mentioned it earlier. thank you. >> mr. koh, thank you. actually testimony. i think we'll have to recess we can all go deal with our own campaign accounts. [laughter] would be back in about an hour. we really appreciate looking to get into questions with you. we are not going to go to mr. robert dix, vice president of government affairs and critical infras

review cybersecurity issues. this hearing continues our committee's review of cyber security issues with an examination of threats to communications networks and the responses of the private sector. threats to communications networks have come a long way in a very short time, and they are very, very real and serious. before coming to congress, i spent about 22 years as a radio broadcaster, and as a small businessman, had to worry about security in our communications network 20 years ago, it was relatively straightforward. you had to have a fence around the tower and you could not let people get near the transmitter. while physical security remains important, cybersecurity has become a pressing concern. now small-business confronts a dizzying array of threats on line. these threats are serious -- it can crash a website or launch a barrage of attacks on the network. those are serious consequences for the small businesses that are the heart of creating jobs in this economy. and our small business, 10 years ago or so

while physical security remains important, cybersecurity has also become a pressing concern. now they confront an array of threats online from things like the zeus trojan horse to suxnet. these threats are serious. unless our cyber defenses hold, a bad actor could drain the bank accounts of a business, or crash a website. or launch a barrage of attacks on a company's network. those are serious consequences for any business and especially the small businesses at the heart of creating jobs in the economy. in our small business, i don't know, ten years or so ago when we did create a computer network and put everything up on digital audio, our main server was hacked and staken over and all of a sudden it started running slower and slower. and eventually we determined it had been overtaken. every month we learn more about these cyberthreats. and what we have learned thus far is of great concern. i'm concerned that our communications networks are under siege. i am worried that the devices consumers use to access those networks are vulnerable. and i'm concerned that our process for

that's how cybersecurity has to be treated. there was 10% of the money set aside for cybersecurity, and no army, air force department could deal. they needed the best and brights in on it and share what's public is public, and not share what is more or equally as important. >> referring to australia, the son of australia war bride, reminded of the story of the notorious australia bushman that -- robber named ned kelly, and, in fact, the head of the rolling stones played it, but ned kelly was notorious for putting so much armor on so nobody could shoot him, and the armor slowed him down so much, they shot him in the back where he was not armored. i think thats semi-- symbolic of the ned kelly syndrome is put on so much armor, but give a way to get around it. i yell back. >> thank you. i appreciate this, but the value of the content we got from you ul was unparalleled, and i think we will be reaching out to each of you to say come back to us with what really would work. we got a lot of that today and our staffs got. that we'll mo

they can be easily swayed if there's a lot of money involved right so if we have this massive cybersecurity complex that's starting to this huge industry is starting to be just how money isn't it right now how much money is in it right now how big would you say this industry is now i don't have clear proof or you know i don't want to billions of dollars there still are we still in the millions range probably reaching the bill if the pens how do you how big you want to look at records there is of course protecting federal systems right the military. there is the defense spending on cyber security but then there's also the larger cyber security. complex around security in all networks in the country all right so how would you suggest then that we properly approach this rather than just hearing that cyber warfare is the next frontier well i think the first thing you have to identify is where there's a market for here and what that means is very simply this most of the networks that government is seeking to protect are privately don't and so you think to yourself well these networks are owned b

publication and then in january, 2011, this one, cybersecurity two years later. what is the threat standing for? the average everyday citizen who regularly uses the internet? >> the internet started out as a toy, something for gaming. they did a little e-commerce. but we're in to the fabric of our economy now. so if you go to the gas station or the grocery store, you buy an airline ticket, it's growing in importance. i'm waiting for the day we get internet-based cars. that day is coming soon. >> guess what, you talk, i'll show the story. it's this morning in the paper. so go on. >> so increased dependence. when the technology was created, people didn't expect to become so central. it's not at all secure. and around the world, you have spies, criminals, armies, who realize, this is a tremendous opportunity for them. and they haven't been slow in taking it. so every year it gets a little more risky for america. and we haven't really done enough to change that. and that's something to look forward to. >> so right now, where -- who's responsible for security? let's s

cybersecurity and $18 billion in fy-2013 to fy-2017. mr. secretary, in general, how does the proposed budget address these threats and vulnerabilities we face in the cyberarena. can you expound upon that? and in the event of a large scale cyberattack, how resilient are power grids and military bases? obviously our military bases in many ways are dependent on the political infrastructure, our electric grid owned and operated by the private sector. and if they go down, our military bases and their ability to function are vul innerable. what efforts are we doing to make them resilient and have some of their power supply back if necessary? >> i'll talk cybera and then i'l ask mr. hill to talk about submarines, is that right? we're very concerned about cyber. we talk about what's new in the world in terms of threats. for us, it's emerging capabilities. it's special operating forces. it's cyberand it's isr. those same capabilities are also -- have become available to our adversaries. and in the case of cyber in particular, we've been acting t

we basically provide cybersecurity exchanges basically kind of defined by two prongs.the first is that cybersecurity threat indicator indicates an attribute of a malicious attack and that is kind of spelled out in the bill a little more and also the second prong is that it has to be, reasonable efforts have to be taken to scrub it as personally identifiable permission. i think we are talking about a narrow slice that would really help companies and help governments know the risks that are out there and share information in real-time to prevent them. and with that i will turn it over to you. >> thank you, tom. i understand chairman rodgers and mr. ruppersberger have a bill that is actually passed through committee fairly heavily focused on the issues we have in terms of information sharing and providing the incentives and disincentives to not share information. could you give us a quick snapshot in terms of the status and some of the meat around the bones? >> first of all thanks for having me. on the house side speaker boehner asked representative thornberry for a broad

also, we have the cybersecurity legislation which this committee is marking up before the end of march. chairman lundgren has worked extensively on that. i know at least five or six other committees as well. it's intended to try to move that this spring to get a combined bill to go to the floor. again, we'll work with your department and the administration to ensure that we cover it as well as we can. i know that your appearance before the homeland security appropriations subcommittee this morning, you had an exchange with congresswoman lowie on the department's efforts in working with the financial services industry and cybersecurity and as you know, the financial services industry is vital to the economy of new york and the nation and i have a few concerns that we could be doing more enforcing a seamless relationship between dhs and the private sector on the issue of cybersecurity. you can answer that in your own statement or during the questions. one area which i think many of us have concerns about, and that's the significant decrease in funding for the coast guard. approximately $

more held on questions related to cybersecurity. in fact, our own committee since 2005 has held nine hearings on the subject and will hold another one this thursday where we will hear reactions to this bill. i'm very pleased to say that senator reid continues to be very committed to seeing us do everything we can to adopt legislation to protect our american cyber systems. i believe its the leader's intent to bring this bill up in the next work period. i hope so because the truth is that time is not on our side. we are not adequately protected at this moment, and the capabilities of those who are staking us for economic reasons or to prepare to attack us for strategic reasons just grows larger and larger. i do want to say that we have a growing number of companies in the private sector, information technology, cybersecurity and other companies in critical infrastructure areas that are coming to support this bill, too, that i want to mention. here are cisco and oracle which gives you some sense of the range of support for the bill. bo

"i lost my job in the middle of june. being able to use computers was a real lifesaver for me. i do not have the internet at home. the staff behind the desk at the one-stop the center --" state employees, by the way -- "we're always helpful. they always give good suggestions. what i feel helped me most was susan's coaching on interview technique. susan called me the day before to ask if it would be a help to me to practice questions. i got the job. i'm grateful to have had such in valuable resources and assistance. it is part of the reason i have a position i call my dream job." her dream job pays more than the job she lost, and she and coach susan are both with us today. would this dynamic duo please stand?

alongside our own cybersecurity experts to prevent, identify, and address cyberincidents. we continue to work with the private sector, other government, national security, and law enforcement agencies, and the international community to mitigate the risks and reduce the potential for malicious act to be successful. last year our computer emergency readiness team responded to more than 100,000 incident reports and released more than 5,000 actionable cybersecurity alerts to our federal, state, and private sector partners. and we are working with our international law enforcement partners to share expertise and resources to combat electronic crimes such as identity and intellectual property theft, network intrusions and a range of financial crime. and these efforts show results. in the last year alone, the u.s. secret service prevented 5.6 billion dollars in potential losses to financial crime investigations and $1.5 billion through cybercrime investigations. and at the same time, i.c.e. interrupted or dismantled more than 140 transnational criminal negotiations capable of la

right now the senate is working on a big cybersecurity bill.t senate bill should come out sometime next week. and even though we've gotten used to the permanent state of gridlock in washington, this is one of the few issues where there's actually fairly broad-based bipartisanship. the legislation would require companies to take appropriate precautions against online threats. with the homeland security department empowered to enforce the law. and it's not just the federal government. states all over the country have been passing data security laws with tighter compliance requirements. but next week the senate, hey, that's a catalyst. even without washington, though, firms would still be spending money to protect their networks out of pure necessity. for many companies stopping hacking has become just a cost of doing business. and protect the privacy of their customers is now essential to protecting their reputations. but the reason cyber security is such a great sbiz hackers get more sophisticated by the day. they are relentless. they are tenaci

information for cybersecurity purposes. if a member fails to use the information appropriately. there are provisions in the law that would make sure that is taken care of over a malicious actor and that sort of thing. we're trying to create a structure over information-sharing one to provide appropriate oversight because these are my sensitive issues that we're dealing with and we want to make sure that we're dealing with the appropriate information is getting to the right people and the right span of time. so putting a structure around it enables proper oversight and it provides people a one stop shop. they can -- they don't to have worry, do i need to go to the fbi? do i need to go to dhs or nsa today. i can go one place and go to a one stop shop. our bill does not -- is not a silver bullet. it will not solve all problems but we believe it does put a framework together that will solve some of our issues. >> thank you, kevin. as you can see, a number of areas are covered with the various bills. i'm going to open it up to a

that seems to be focused specifically on responsibility you have of coordinating the cybersecurity efforts across different executive branch agencies and departments. yet there seems to be little in the budget for the coordination effort in cooperation with the private sector. does that indicate a lack of concern for that or a lesson priority for the responsibility -- we have been moved out of our subcommittee and hopefully will be considered by the full committee. it makes it clear that dhs would be the main focus and platform of the federal government working with the private sector on the civilian side. >> we have quite a bit in the budget for coordination with the private sector. it is very important part and i appreciate the work on cyber security. i will be testifying on the senate side tomorrow on that area. it is urgent and needed and very important. i think perhaps because the court nation work across the federal family and the deployment of einstein ii and the rating of einstein ii, they can be segregated from other cyber protection activities. it is not to suggest that the work
