Congress sets up cybersecurity panel - Declan McCullagh, MSNBC

In a sign of the federal government’s heightened interest in securing the Internet, the U.S. Congress on Tuesday established its first panel devoted to cybersecurity.

The fifth will oversee the federal government’s “cybersecurity, science, and research and development” efforts relating to homeland security.
