Book Description
Los Alamos Nat. Lab. (LANL) is one of 3 Nat. Nuclear Security Admin. (NNSA) labs. that designs and develops nuclear weapons for the U.S. stockpile. LANL employees rely on sensitive and classified information and assets that are protected at different levels, depending on the risks posed if they were lost, stolen, or otherwise compromised. However, LANL has experienced several significant security breaches during the past decade. This testimony provides: (1) views on physical security at LANL, as discussed in a report issued on June 13, 2008; (2) preliminary observations on physical security at Lawrence Livermore Nat. Lab.; and (3) views on cyber security at LANL, as discussed in a Sept. 9, 2008 report. Charts and tables.

Book Description
Pervasive and sustained cyber attacks continue to pose a potentially devastating threat to the systems and operations of the fed. government. In recent months, fed. officials have cited the continued efforts of foreign nations and criminals to target government and private sector networks; terrorist groups have expressed a desire to use cyber attacks to target the U.S.; and press accounts have reported attacks on the Web sites of government agencies. This statement describes: (1) cyber threats to fed. information systems and cyber-based critical infrastructures; (2) control deficiencies at fed. agencies that make these systems and infrastructures vulnerable to cyber threats; and (3) opportunities that exist for improving fed. cybersecurity.

Book Description
Are nuclear arsenals safe from cyber-attack? Could terrorists launch a nuclear weapon through hacking? Are we standing at the edge of a major technological challenge to global nuclear order? These are among the many pressing security questions addressed in Andrew Futter’s ground-breaking study of the cyber threat to nuclear weapons. Hacking the Bomb provides the first ever comprehensive assessment of this worrying and little-understood strategic development, and it explains how myriad new cyber challenges will impact the way that the world thinks about and manages the ultimate weapon. The book cuts through the hype surrounding the cyber phenomenon and provides a framework through which to understand and proactively address the implications of the emerging cyber-nuclear nexus. It does this by tracing the cyber challenge right across the nuclear weapons enterprise, explains the important differences between types of cyber threats, and unpacks how cyber capabilities will impact strategic thinking, nuclear balances, deterrence thinking, and crisis management. The book makes the case for restraint in the cyber realm when it comes to nuclear weapons given the considerable risks of commingling weapons of mass disruption with weapons of mass destruction, and argues against establishing a dangerous norm of “hacking the bomb.” This timely book provides a starting point for an essential discussion about the challenges associated with the cyber-nuclear nexus, and will be of great interest to scholars and students of security studies as well as defense practitioners and policy makers.

Book Description
Weaknesses in info. security (IS) are a widespread problem that can have serious consequences -- such as intrusions by malicious users, compromised networks, and the theft of intellectual property and personally identifiable info. -- and has identified IS as a governmentwide high-risk issue since 1997. Concerned by reports of significant vulnerabilities in fed. computer systems, Congress passed the Fed. IS Mgmt. Act of 2002 (FISMA), which authorized and strengthened IS program, evaluation, and reporting requirements for fed. agencies. This report evaluates: (1) the adequacy and effectiveness of agencies' IS policies and practices; and (2) fed. agencies' implementation of FISMA requirements. Includes recommendations. Illustrations.
