Amara, I'm not sure what you find "shocking" about it --
the bureaucrats and the business people patting each other on
the back or the fact that people are concerned about cybersecurity?

Bottom line is that a lack of security is costing businesses money.
A few teenage hackers in Isreal create a worm and millions of people
get hit with it. Its a serious drain on productivity and should
be addressed as such.
