The nation’s critical infrastructure is vulnerable to cyber attacks and better information sharing is needed. Information sharing between government and the operators of control systems is important in strengthening the security of those systems. A major criticism of the government’s handling of threat information has been that it considers sharing a one-way street: it wants the private sector to be generous with what it gives the government, but stingy with what the government gives. The government is beginning to understand that to engage industry, you can’t just ask for something and never be heard from again.”]
