But the persons testifying here today know information warfare is not fiction, and it is not a future threat.
Information warfare is a reality.
It goes on today all across this country, and it poses a current threat to our national security. And we're not paying enough attention to it. The problem is simple but profound. Today, our national security depends upon computers. Today, we can't move a battleship, communicate battlefield information, develop weapons, deliver supplies, assign personnel, aim missiles, or perform a thousand other military missions without computer systems.
