The
Washington Post is reporting that plans national plans for cyber security
are being pared down due to heavy lobbying from companies. According
to the article, the new plans will no longer include a recommendation for
creating a 'privacy czar' position. Calls for ISPs to bundle firewall
software have also been dropped. It appears that the new plan will
focus mostly on the Federal government, making it a requirement to purchase
only software that has been declared secure.
