The United States government is building its own “scale model” of the internet to carry out cyber war games.  Several organisations, including the defence company Lockheed Martin, are working on prototypes of the “virtual firing range”. The system will allow researchers to simulate attacks by foreign powers and from hackers based inside the US. More than $500m (£309m) has been allocated by the Department of Defense to develop “cyber technologies”.
