Brian Krebs of the Washington post broke an interesting story about plans to appoint Rod A Beckstrom as a coordinator to protect federal government networks. For details, see http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2008/03/19/AR2008031903125.html . Given all the stories about targeted attack and deeply penetrated networks, he will surely have his work cut out.
