US reveals new cyber strategy for protecting private data of Americans
The White House revealed a new national cybersecurity strategy Thursday, outlining the federal government's defensive priorities while pledging to go on offence against foreign hackers.
The strategy provides federal agencies with new guidance for how to protect themselves and the private data of Americans, White House National Security Adviser John Bolton told reporters. The plan comes less than two months before the Nov. 6 midterm elections, when U.S. intelligence officials expect a flurry of digital attacks.
