The equities issue
Equities issue has existed for a long time
- Offensive side has been given advantage for years
- Offense doesn't reveal secrets to defense
- Defense reveals all / most of the details to offense
- The result is a less solid defense and stronger offense
- But we need the defense more than the offense!
- Because the offense is losing to non-US defenders
- Cryptography, high volume of information, hard-to-tap infrastructure, difficulty of on-the-ground intelligence, etc.
- The equities need to swing to defense
- More funding for defense - orders of magnitude more
- Use of deception and other active defenses should be made
- Legal issues in active response need to be clarified
