FBI: We're not worried about terrorist cyberattack
[print version] FBI: We're not worried about terrorist cyberattack | CNET News.com
The Assistant Director of the FBI Louis M. Reigal held a news briefing in Washington last week in which he stated that "We're not aware of any plan to attack U.S. infrastructure."
Reigal who is in charge of the bureau's Cyber Division does not believe that Al Queda has the resources mount a serious attack on our "critical infrastructure" using the internet.
It seems that the FBI is more concerned about foreign governments probing our cyber defenses, although they have no actual proof, they do have "suspicions" that many of the recent attacks on secure computers have been "state-sponsored."
