White House circulating draft of executive order on cybersecurity
The Hill ^ | 9/6/12 | Jennifer Martinez

The White House is circulating a draft of an executive order aimed at protecting the country from cyberattacks, The Hill has learned.

The draft proposal, which has been sent to relevant federal agencies for feedback, is a clear sign that the administration is resolved to take action on cybersecurity even as Congress remains gridlocked on legislation that would address the threat.

The draft executive order would establish a voluntary program where companies operating critical infrastructure would elect to meet cybersecurity best practices and standards crafted, in part, by the government, according to two people familiar with the document.

Ubama is making a mistake by moving to Hawaii.

He needs to move to a non-extraditable country, ASAP.

Obama wants you to think he's moving to Hawaii. And even if he does lose, I don't hear the republicans saying what they would do against all those 900 plus executive orders he's shoved down our throats.

Like the cyber attack the right is putting on his campaign right before Axelrod’s & Pluffes eyes. He needs to shut it down today to get reinstalled as dictator.

For pity's sake, would somebody please inform Obama and the rest of the world that executive orders are illegal and especially unconstitutional? The POTUS is not a one man legislature!

Ironic in light of the White House instigated Flame/Stuxnet leak.

Leaked vital information when it suited him, but now pretends to be a champion of national security.
