Deputy Defense Secretary William J. Lynn says #cyberthreat grows more destructive

he cyber threat the United States faces is increasing in severity and is accessible to a wide range of enemies, Deputy Defense Secretary William J. Lynn III said in a television interview broadcast July 14.

"Most of what we see today is exploitation -- that's theft, stealing secrets, either commercial or military," Lynn told Ray Suarez on "PBS Newshour." "(But) we know the tools exist to destroy things, to destroy physical property, to destroy networks, to destroy data, maybe even take human lives."
