This is not a national security issue- it is a SONY issue (failure to secure their computers and internet systems)
Hire people that know how to set up a secure website, and use internet firewalls and security for keeripe’s sake...
So the norks hacks a movie company’s computer... big deal. It’s like ISIS believers taking over a coffee shop in Australia or “capturing” a school full of children.
How hard is that? You open the door and walk in...
SONY should fire their web people, that’s for sure

what this has shown is that the US government is not willing or able to protect US assets against all forms of aggression. They just allowed a foreign government dictate to the American people what they can and can’t do inside the borders of the US using force. That has never happened before. The last time someone tried that was around 1812. They just showed the world that you don’t need to challenge those guns behind the blades of grass to conquer the US.
What are you willing to change to appease a communist dictator?

If man builds the lock, there is a man who can hack it.
If it were that simple, there would be no systems compromised ever. Think about all the devices in the Sony network that were manufactured in China. Think how easy it would be for the CHICOM to put backdoors in those devices and then get their evil doers in DPRK to walk through those back doors. Not too long ago, there was a flood of black market Cisco network gear that was made in China circulating in the US. Think that stuff was secure? Think any of it is in service?
Plain and simply put, information security is at best an illusion and at worst an oxymoron.
