I would really suggest everyone take a look at the new draft for the Cyber Security Strategy Plan, as Security Professionals this plan will effect you as an individual. I have provided a link to the .pdf file.
Cyber Security Strategy Plan
From what the critics are saying the plan, still only in draft form, is too soft on the technology industry. Are these "pretty please recommendations" as one security expert called them? Or is it guidance without using the the "heavy hand" of government. Should it be tougher on the industry?.

Originally stated On New York Times By Marc Rotenberg, director of the Electronic Privacy Information Center"It's hard to find a security approach that will simultaneously solve the problems of ice storms, software glitches, Al Qaeda, faulty operating systems and spam. But in almost any scenario, less emphasis should be placed on monitoring and more on reliability."
An interesting comment, I think.

What is your opinions on this topic, how do you feel about the plan? As security professionals, we should actively voice our opinions on this topic. It will effect us all sooner or later, and you might as well voice now, before you end up complaining later.
