Cyber attack, a new type of war thrust.

I wonder if Japan is safe against cyber attack. Sony Pictures is hacked by probably North Korea cyber attack. This would be very dangerous if Japan’s top authorities become a target. As 2 years ago, Japan’s Diet are also damaged by a cyber attack by an anonymous group and leaked information.

As internet is an indispensable infrastructure, its loss or damage are very critical today. Therefore, Japan’s government should be aware of importance of cyber terrorism and its attack. But I have to say that no vital responses are made by government until now. I believe more budget and other government resource should be allocated to this area rather than allocating them to the Self Defense Force.
