During a previous look at the cyber-security faceplant that led to Chinese hackers running wild in the Office of Personnel Management system, I thought the story of hundreds of millions of tax dollars spent to implement security software so far behind schedule that it is already obsolete sounded uncomfortably similar to the HealthCareDotGov debacle.
The similarities grow by the day, as we learn the Obama administration lied furiously to cover up the extent of the damage and its own ineptitude. This attack was absolutely catastrophic. Those who describe it as the Pearl Harbor of the First Cyber War are not far off the mark. And it is very clear President Obama and his hapless crew have no idea what to do about it.
