Devin Nunes, Chairman of the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.intelligence.house.gov\/\">House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence<\/a>, and Rep. Lynn Westmoreland, Chairman of the Intelligence Committee\u2019s NSA and Cybersecurity Subcommittee, released the following statements on February 5 in reaction to the cyberattack on Anthem health insurer:<\/p>\n<p>Chairman Nunes:\u00a0\u201cAlongside the recent cyberattack on Sony, the hacking of Anthem shows the urgent need to improve our nation\u2019s cybersecurity infrastructure. We\u2019ve seen time and again that businesses and other private entities are vulnerable to cyberattacks by criminals, terrorists, and foreign governments. This situation is untenable \u2013 that\u2019s why a top priority of the House Intelligence Committee is to develop\u00a0a strong cyber bill that encourages private companies to share information about attacks on their systems.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Chairman Westmoreland:\u00a0\u201cThe Anthem hack shows the immediate need for enhanced cybersecurity measures, for both national security purposes and to protect our citizens. The hackers have exposed the weaknesses in our current system, and have jeopardized sensitive and personal data. As Chairman of the\u00a0relevant Subcommittee\u00a0on the House Intelligence Committee, I find this breach is unacceptable and will work hard to review and strengthen our nation\u2019s cybersecurity laws to improve our defenses against cyber attacks.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Source: US House of Representatives<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rep.
