William Gibson popularized the term “cyberspace” in the early 1980s, it was a reference to an other-worldly domain, a parallel universe embedded in a context of networked computing in which people’s real world lives had become inextricably linked. Gibson had envisioned a domain in which nefarious actors could harness the cyber-domain to manipulate, harm and even destroy economic, social, and cultural value that has been either created or stored within cyberspace. In the first several months of the Obama Administration, we have seen the need to protect what Gibson, some 30 years ago, presciently painted as dominant threads in the fabric of our civilization’s future.”]
