U.S. concludes 'Cyber Storm' mock attacks

By TED BRIDIS
ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER

[Excerpt]

WASHINGTON -- The government concluded its "Cyber Storm" wargame Friday,
its biggest-ever exercise to test how it would respond to devastating
attacks over the Internet from anti-globalization activists, underground
hackers and bloggers.

Bloggers?

Participants confirmed parts of the worldwide simulation challenged
government officials and industry executives to respond to deliberate
misinformation campaigns and activist calls by Internet bloggers, online
diarists whose "Web logs" include political rantings and musings about
current events.
