China will stop cyberwar on the Internet
The become frequent attacks of hackers on the American computer systems with the confidential data have forced to worry experts who are engaged in safety issues on the Internet, writes NEWSru.
In the end of 2006 similar incidents followed one after another. In particular, the hacker managed to crack the Administration computer on nuclear safety of the USA. In November cyberattack to a network of military college Naval War has guided suspicions at China. According to preliminary data investigations, criminals from this country managed to put for some weeks out of action a computer network of College. Experts recognise that the College has been badly protected from attacks.
Many experts from the different countries of the world did not feel sorry for time and money (on registration of the Chinese visa and filling of the so-called china visa application) to arrive and estimate independently to estimate a current situation.
However the most important fear in Americans is caused by hearings that all these "local" attacks are rehearsal for more global attack to the governmental computers. More often attacks are reduced to banal "fishig" - to dodges thanks to which the user himself lets out and, that without suspecting, shares in internet the confidential information.
In China also like to use and other traditional methods of network crimes: dispatch of viruses and "hearts", however receptions become more and more refined, the director of the centre of research of computer safety SANS Institute Alan Poller recognises. As he said, the regularity of attacks of hackers on computers of armed forces and the government shows a gap in protection system. The federal government should develop a series of measures for struggle against this problem and by that more accurately to differentiate the Internet on public and confidential sectors of using, experts speak. It should stop activity of hackers and terrorists.
Trouble in that the Internet has not been thought up for safety, and on this question have reflected too late - only when 243 countries were connected to a global Network. By some estimations, 100 from them in a condition to untie cyberwar. Moreover, set of the countries simply have not developed laws on cybercrimes.
The Chinese hackers regularly attack some years the American confidential objects. Some years ago after one of such attacks the Pentagon has created the special program under the preliminary name "Titanic rain". About it have learnt in August, 2005, but since then the distance program other name not subject to disclosure.
Definitively intentions of the Chinese cybercriminals are not clear yet, however is not excluded that they simply accumulate experience and the information. Meanwhile the American military men recognise that they do not have distinct system of protection against scale attacks And actions of the organisations which urged to develop strategy, are not co-ordinated among themselves. Commanders seriously are afraid that sooner or later on September, 11th will repeat - on the Internet, and it will be the present cyberwar.
