A very interesting read on why playing a very long game and centralized economic control, is an important consideration for the U.S and its allies. When data never dies, when the smallest piece of information has value, when you have recognised that your data is being stolen but are not protecting it and when you don’t have the advantage of centralized economic control. Your choices are stark.

Either you learn to play the game, or you accept that the information you pay to create will be exploited and could be used against you.

‘the Pentagon has been unable to focus sufficient attention on the threats that face its suppliers due to limited authority and resources to identify possible Chinese penetrations in its supply chain. While the Defense Department and the defense industrial base stumble through the years-long implementation of effective cyber safeguards, Chinese cyber actors continue to pillage America€„¢s defense intellectual property.’

Data is our most important asset, and our information systems and infrastructure are the means to deliver. We fail to secure it and manage it at our peril.

‘Furthermore, the global community needs to set standards of conduct concerning cyber-economic and industrial espionage. Such a collective effort would form a united front of nations ready to challenge China and impose penalties for its aggressive behavior.’

The irony is in such a high stakes game, we have the resources today to manage the risk. We are not using them?
