Richard Clark's "CHEW' Four Types of Cyber Crime

Interesting article at SD Times:

Richard Clarke talks cyber crime

By Alyson Behr

Clarke invented an acronym, CHEW, to describe the four pre-eminent types of attacks as he sees them.

•  C stands for crime.
•  H belongs to “hacktivism.”
•  E is for espionage
•  W stands for war

I thought this was an interesting comment in the article:

"About 20 to 30 countries, including the U.S., have formed cyber war units. The Pentagon has also established a huge new organization, designed for offensive purposes, called the Cyber Command; it is of composed of the Army, Navy and Air Force. The U.S. Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency is also developing offensive tools."
