Last month Janet Napolitano, Secretary of the Department of Homeland
Security (DHS) claims that unspecified reports coming from US financial
institutions assert that hackers are “actively” attacking them.
Napolitano said:
“Right now, financial institutions are actively under attack. We know that. I’m not giving you any classified information… I will say this has involved some of our nation’s largest institutions. We’ve also had our stock exchanges attacked over the last [few] years, so we know… there are vulnerabilities.”
Being mysterious, Napolitano said that an unverified $400,000 had been stolen by hackers from Bank of America. The DHS is responsible for securing computer networks that are deemed unclassified for the benefit of civilian agencies, private sector corporations and individuals.
Napolitano confirmed that hackers are infiltrating banking networks but said: “I really don’t want to go into that per se. All I want to say is that there are active matters going on with financial institutions.”
The National Security Agency (NSA) has begun a comprehensive program to search out our schools into scouting grounds for a team of American grown hacker community. The NSA is focusing on colleges and universities within the US. Four schools have already been singled out as official Centers of Academic Excellence in Cyber Operations.
The NSA wants an elite team of “computer geniuses” that are trained in hacking before they obtain their college degree. The students selected to train under this program will not be privy to the impact their work will have on cyber intelligence, military capabilities and law enforcement’s expansion of spying on Americans.
The DHS is planning on combining resources to create a digital militia that will come to the aid of the US government to protect against cyberthreats. Their focus will be all digital government infrastructures, industry, academia and any cyber “emergencies” that may manifest without warning.
By increasing their cyber workforce by 600%, the DHS is arming themselves with anaylists, IT specialists, and civilians versed in computer language and writing digital code. Thanks to S.2105 and Senators Joseph Leiberman, Susan Collins, and Jay Rockefeller, the National Cybersecurity and Communications Integration Center (NCCIC) will imbue DHS with the authority to recruit experts to work for various federal agencies in cybersecurity.
According to S.2105: “The section also authorizes the Secretary to exercise, with respect to cybersecurity employees, the same authorities as the Secretary of Defense to establish a scholarship program to enable employees to pursue an associate, baccalaureate, or advanced degree, or a certification in an information assurance discipline. The section requires the Secretary to report to Congress annually on the process used to hire individuals for cybersecurity positions and how the Secretary plans to fill the critical need of DHS to recruit and retain skilled cybersecurity employees.”
DHS has begun accepting applications for IT technicians, policy, management, emergency management, attorneys and cyber.
The banking institutions have decided to join forces to fight the cyber-attacks, along with the federal government so that technological vulnerabilities are identified and eliminated.
Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs are discussing converging on a shared data center where secret banking information can be kept under wraps so that hackers cannot steal information as well as sound an alarm when other banks are under attack.
This new network of technocrats will privatize customer banking information in the name of security while allowing the banksters to further hide their questionable dealings. Banks across America will be able to communicate in covert means that will never be released to the general public. The days of banking scandals are over because their network will prevent them for being caught.
