White House Cybersecurity Coordinator Michael Daniel has come to his own defense, sort of, for his comment. Daniel: “Being too down in the weeds at the technical level could actually be a little bit of a distraction” The interview went viral on the Internet, igniting a swell of scornful comments in the blogosphere, on Twitter and on our website. Daniel has remained silent on this matter for nearly two months – he didn’t respond to a request through his spokeswoman for a comment when I wrote a blog about the brouhaha.”]
