U.S. cybersecurity still lacking  view story

Nearly two years ago, the government laid out far-reaching plans to extend homeland security past airports and borders to that increasingly important backbone of the economy, the Internet.
The technology industry, weary of e-mail viruses and fearful of a terrorist attack on the World Wide Web, applauded the Bush administration's National Strategy to Secure Cyberspace as a sign the government was finally getting wise about Internet security.
Yet since then, the government - at least publicly - has done little to protect the Internet from disruptions that could cost the economy billions. The National Strategy to Secure Cyberspace, mean while, is stalled like a computer that needs to be rebooted.
