US would lose cyberwar: former intel chief: "The United States would lose a cyberwar if it fought one today, a former US intelligence chief warned on Tuesday.
Michael McConnell, a retired US Navy vice admiral who served as ex-president George W. Bush's director of national intelligence, also compared the danger of cyberwar to the nuclear threat posed by the Soviet Union during the Cold War.
'If we went to war today in a cyberwar, we would lose,' McConnell told a hearing on cybersecurity held by the Senate Committee on Commerce, Science and Transportation.
'We're the most vulnerable, we're the most connected, we have the most to lose."
