SC Magazine US: Cybersecurity and the presidential campaign
Barack Obama said (among other things) “I’ll declare our cyber-infrastructure a strategic asset, and appoint a national cyber adviser who will report directly to me.

In a related article, Kevin Werbach writes that “John McCain is poised to announce his great insight: tech policy isn’t worthy of attention from the President of the United States” — which has sparked an interesting conversation in the comments.
And in yet another related article, this one from the Washington Post (via circleid & fergdawg), it appears that the Bush administration’s proactive “Comprehensive National Cybersecurity Initiative” is both highly classified and extremely expensive.
