Department of State Washington File: Text: Senator Jon Kyl on Cyber Crime
The latest attacks on 8 well-known Internet sites like eBay, Yahoo, and CNN raised public awareness, and hopefully will serve as a wake-up call about the need to protect our critical computer networks. Uncertainty caused by the attacks contributed to a 258 point drop in the Dow Jones Industrial Average and halted a string of 3 days of consecutive record-high closes of the technology-laden Nasdaq Composite Index.
