The military’s top officer warned Wednesday of the “substantial” and complex threat to the United States of cyber attack, and the potential for devastating impact. “We’ve got to come to a place where those threats are diminished, if not eliminated,” Joint Chiefs Chairman Adm. Mike Mullen said at a news conference in Washington. “I would never go in, certainly in any area of warfare, into details on threats except to say they are substantial. We are focused on them.” Mullen said that cyberspace, like outer space, is a lawless terrain. “It’s an area with no rules, there are no boundaries, it happens with the speed of light,” Mullen said at the Washington Foreign Press Center.
