Cybersecurity: Obama calls the private sector to cooperate


At a summit on cyber security in Silicon Valley, California, US President yesterday signed a decree encouraging enterprises to create information-sharing organizations on cyber attacks. Barack Obama called the private sector to cooperate with his administration to fight against threats to cyber security.


"A very important part of our computer network and our critical infrastructure in the private sector, which means that the state (federal) can not do everything alone," said the head of the White House. "But the private sector can not do it alone either, because it is the State which often has the most up to date information on the latest threats."


A thousand people from businesses in particular, to university, on the internet liberties association attended the summit. Of these participants, Tim Cook, Apple's boss. "We have a simple business model based on selling the best products and the best services in the world, but not on selling your personal data," said Tim Cook.


Each had revelations in memory of Edward Snowden, the former NSA consultant, covering an extensive system of monitoring of telephone conversations and communications. The summit organized by the White House was indeed also to restore confidence between the Obama administration and the Americans, shocked by the scandal.
