Well, I wrote a bleedin' dictionary for you ...

“We lost the cyber war over the last 15 years. Our computing environment is 
already compromised,” and things are likely to get worse going forward because we 
do not really understand security.  “We lack any meaningful metrics or measures 
to say how secure a system is.”  It no longer is true that the best minds are on the 
side of the hackers. The dark side of cyberspace has been co-opted by organized 
crime, entrepreneurs of questionable integrity and, possibly, terrorists.  [Argh.  
But, I suppose you have to add cyberterrorism to get anyone to listen, these days - 
rms]  Much of the process of illegal hacking has been mechanized to the point 
that it involves automation, not innovation.  Part of the problem was identified 
by the U.S. Computer Emergency Readiness Team director. ”We lack a common 
language for discussing many of the elements of security. We need to reinvent not 
only how we do incident response, but how we talk about events,” the director said 
at the symposium.
