Comments on: Obama expected to announce cybersecurity revamp, new 'czar'

A 60-day review of the Feds' computer and Internet security efforts is complete, but recommendations are likely to be divisive.

Another meaningless job for another crony. The 'czar' is not reporting to the president. Kinda defeats the purpose of having this position, no?

Czar or a hacking teams. We need to push ourselves every day. We need to see every level of the software in our systems. We need war games against our self.

Our taxes at work.


Personally, it sounds like another pet job to reward supporters/contributors with. This is what has happened with the prior 'czar' jobs of both Republican and Democratic parties.

Republicans (as in the Bush administration) don't believe that government can work, and every time they get into office they try to prove it. I say, give the Obama team a chance to do the securing and firewalling and so forth that the Bush administration should already have done.
