"Controversially, the OECD advises nations against adopting the
Pentagon's idea of setting up a military division - as it has
under the auspices of the US air force's Space Command - to fight
cyber-security threats. While vested interests may want to see
taxpayers' money spent on such ventures, says Sommer, the military
can only defend its own networks, not the private-sector critical
networks we all depend on for gas, water, electricity and banking."
