Present: Senators Lieberman, Carper, Pryor, Burris, Collins, and McCain. OPENING STATEMENT OF CHAIRMAN LIEBERMAN Chairman LIEBERMAN. The hearing will come to order. Good afternoon and thanks for being here today. We are going to take a look at legislation Senators Collins, Carper, and I introduced last week, the Protecting Cyberspace as a National Asset Act. It pro- vides a comprehensive framework to modernize, strengthen, and coordinate our cyber defenses across civilian Federal networks and the networks of the most vital privately owned critical infrastruc- ture, including some real basics of American life: Our electric grid, financial systems, and our telecommunications networks.

    No. 11-01 January 2011 WORKING PAPER BEYOND CYBER-DOOM: Cyberattack Scenarios and the Evidence of History By Sean Lawson The ideas presented in this research are the author’s and do not represent official positions of the Mercatus Center at George Mason University. 1 Beyond Cyber-Doom: Cyberattack Scenarios and the Evidence of History Sean Lawson, Ph.D. Department of Communication University of Utah “[T]hese war games are about the real effects of a cyberwar . about causing chaos in our streets at home due to sudden crashes in our critical infrastructure through manipulation of our banking, transportation, utilities, communications, and other critical infrastructure industries. These are all real scenarios.” (Patterson, 2010b) “In seeking a prudent policy, the difficulty for decision-makers is to navigate the rocky shoals between hysterical doomsday scenarios and uninformed complacency.” (Cavelty, 2007: 144) Introduction Recently, news media and policy makers in the United States have turned their attention to prospective threats to and through an ethereal and ubiquitous technological domain referred to as “cyberspace.” “Cybersecurity” threats include attacks on critical infrastructures like power, water, transportation, and communication systems launched via cyberspace, but also terrorist use of the Internet, mobile phones, and other information and communication technologies (ICTs) for fundraising, recruiting, organizing, and carrying out attacks (Deibert & Rohozinski, 2010). Frustration over a perceived lack of public and policy maker attention to these threats, combined with a belief that “exaggeration” and “appeals to emotions like fear can be more compelling than a rational discussion of strategy” (Lewis, 2010: 4), a number of cybersecurity proponents have deployed what one scholar has called “cyber-doom scenarios” (Cavelty, 2007: 2).
