• Report says U.S. needs new approach for security
The United States needs a new approach to secure cyberspace and prevent a "digital Pearl Harbor or 9/11," concludes a new report issued Monday by the Cyber Secure Institute, a nonprofit cybersecurity analysis and advocacy organization.
A new report titled "Cyberwarfare and Cyberterrorism: The Need for a New U.S. Strategic Approach," authored by retired Gen. Eugene Habiger of the U.S. Air Force, concludes that that the public and private sector must deploy secure systems that are properly tested and certified to withstand sophisticated cyberattacks.
In addition, the government must ensure that the privately-owned critical infrastructure systems are secured, as well as coordinate a public awareness campaign to promote personal cybersecurity, such as the use of stronger passwords.

• Government warns of looming cyberthreats
White House Director of National Intelligence Dennis Blair says the U.S. is severely under the threat of greater cyberattacks but believes we can rise to the challenge.
Blair appeared before a Senate panel on Tuesday to deliver the Annual Threat Assessment of the U.S. Intelligence Community (PDF). A statement of Blair's remarks to the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence was released for the record. While he focused mostly on non-cyberterrorism and similar threats, he led off with a stark report on the growing dangers and challenges of cyberwarfare.
Seeing the recent attacks against Google as a "wake-up call," Blair cautioned those who may treat the problem lightly. He also praised companies who report such incidents as they help Washington better understand the nature of cyberthreats that can affect the entire nation.

• Microsoft investigates new Internet Explorer flaw
Microsoft said on Wednesday that it is investigating another flaw in Internet Explorer, this time a vulnerability that could result in an unauthorized disclosure of information for users running its browser on older operating systems.
The software maker said in a security advisory that, although it knows of no attacks based on the flaw, the vulnerability could lead to a Web-based attack from either a Web site designed to take advantage of the flaw or from a site that becomes compromised via user-generated text or a malicious ad. Either way, a user would have to actively go to the compromised Web site.
The flaw is separate from the one used to attack Google and other companies, which Microsoft addressed with an "out-of-band" security update last month.

• Report: Google, NSA talk defense partnership
Google is finalizing an agreement with the National Security Agency to help the search giant ward off cyberattacks, according to the Washington Post.
The electronic surveillance organization is expected to help analyze a cyberattack on Google that the company said originated in China, so that the company can better defend itself against future attacks, the newspaper reported Wednesday. The arrangement is reportedly being designed to allow the two groups to share information without violating Google's privacy policies or laws governing online communications.
Google declined to comment on the report, and the NSA did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
