HOW TO IMPROVE CYBER SECURITY: TEACH HACKING. GERMANNA'S ETHICAL HACKING CLASSES HELP DEFEND AMERICA AGAINST CYBER THREATS, BOTH FOREIGN AND DOMESTIC


China has accelerated computer espionage attacks on the U.S. government, defense contractors and American businesses, a congressional advisory panel says.



The Associated Press reports that cyber attacks from China have become a top American security concern. And The Federal Times says the best defense is to turn to American hackers.

"China is stealing vast amounts of sensitive information from U.S. computer networks," said Larry Wortzel, chairman of the U.S.-China Economic and Security Review Commission set up by Congress in 2000 to advise, investigate and report on U.S.-China issues.

On Sunday, Cathy Jett reported in The Free Lance-Star that classes at Germanna Community College are helping to thwart hackers-- both foreign and domestic.
