Why Former NSA Chief Warns US Not Ready for Next Sony Attack

The United States is unprepared to defend government and commercial targets from a Sony Pictures-style cyberattack, according to a retired general who served as the nation’s top cybersecurity official.

An attack similar to the cyberhack of Sony Pictures Entertainment last month is “a problem we’re not ready for,” Gen. Keith Alexander, former head of the National Security Agency and U.S. Cyber Command, said today in an interview with ABC’s Martha Raddatz on “This Week with George Stephanopoulos.”
