The threat of computer attacks is on a par with international terrorism and major accidents. Nick Harvey has emphasised the cyber threat facing the UK, saying it is “a matter of time” before terrorists use it as a method of attack. In a speech in London, the armed forces minister warned that, in the wrong hands, a laptop could be as effective a weapon as a cruise missile. He also set out how the government planned to use cyberspace to help the military fight the wars of the future.
