DHS acknowledges own computer break-ins

DHS acknowledges own computer break-ins By TED BRIDIS, Associated Press Writer// The Homeland Security Department, the lead U.S. agency for fighting cyber threats, suffered more than 800 hacker break-ins, virus outbreaks and other computer security problems over two years, senior officials acknowledged to Congress. In one instance, hacker tools for stealing passwords and other files were found on two internal Homeland Security computer systems. The agency's headquarters sought forensic help from the department's own Security Operations Center and the U.S. Computer Emergency Readiness Team it operates with Carnegie Mellon University. In other cases, computer workstations in the Coast Guard and the Transportation Security Administration were infected with malicious software detected trying to communicate with outsiders; laptops were discovered missing; and agency Web sites suffered break-ins. The chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee, Rep. Bennie Thompson, D-Miss., said such problems undermine the government's efforts to encourage companies and private organizations to improve cyber security. "What the department is doing on its own networks speaks so loudly that the message is not getting across," Thompson said. Congressional investigators, expected to testify Wednesday during an oversight hearing about the department's security lapses, determined that persistent weaknesses "threaten the confidentiality, integrity and availability of key DHS information and information systems," according to a new report from the Government Accountability Office being released later in June. The Homeland Security Department's chief information officer, Scott Charbo, assured lawmakers his organization was working to prevent such problems. "We need to increase our vigilance to ensure that such incidents do not happen again," Charbo wrote in testimony prepared for Wednesday's hearing. "The department takes these incidents very seriously and will work diligently to ensure they do not recur." The computer problems disclosed to the House Homeland Security subcommittee occurred during fiscal 2005 and fiscal 2006, and occurred at DHS headquarters and many of the department's agencies, including TSA, the Coast Guard, Federal Emergency Management Agency, Customs and Border Protection and others. The subcommittee's chairman, Rep. Jim Langevin, D-R.I., said break- ins to government computer networks and theft of information are "one of the most critical issues confronting our nation, and we must deal with this threat immediately." All the problems involved the department's unclassified computer networks, although DHS officials also have acknowledged to lawmakers dozens of incidents they described as "classified spillage," in which secret information was improperly transmitted or discussed over nonsecure e-mail systems.

Hausman, New Directions in Regulation Seminar on Broadband Access To: HIIP(a)Harvard.edu Date: Wed, 21 Nov 2001 17:07:35 -0500 HIIP Seminar "Current Developments in U.S. Data Privacy Regulation" Barry J. Hurewitz Government and Regulatory Affairs, Hale and Dorr LLP Monday, November 26, 2001 noon-1:30 p.m. BCSIA Library, Littauer Room 369, 3rd Floor John F. Kennedy School of Government Regulatory protection of personal privacy in the U.S. has risen from obscurity in the past few years. Sector by sector, privacy regulations have transformed e-commerce and invigorated advocates of personal information privacy. Privacy protections have been extended to driver's license information, children's online information, financial data, wireless communications, and health records. A combination of industry self- regulation and government enforcement has shaped emerging practices in consumer online privacy. Now, the change in administrations, the war on terrorism, emerging technologies and economic trouble in the online industry are changing the privacy debate in Washington. The FTC has abandoned its call for new privacy laws, and Congress has expanded law enforcement surveillance powers. What is the U.S. regulatory structure for privacy protection? What is happening to e-privacy? Does better information need to compromise privacy? How will the current trend affect e-business? Barry Hurewitz, a partner in Hale and Dorr's Government & Regulatory Affairs Department, has a multidisciplinary practice focusing on federal legislative and regulatory matters affecting technology companies, including federal technology policy, regulatory compliance, government procurement, and technology transfer. As data privacy and security issues have expanded across the high- technology sector, Mr. Hurewitz has advised clients on U.S. and international data privacy developments, including Internet privacy, health data privacy, financial privacy, the U.S.-EU Safe Harbor program for protecting personal data about EU persons, federal surveillance techniques, and privacy in telecommunications. Hurewitz' practice includes regulatory counseling, developing internal corporate data protection procedures, responding to enforcement actions and private claims, participating in the development of new regulations, and tracking emerging state and federal privacy legislation. HIIP Seminar - Schedule for Remaining Sessions, Autumn 2001 December 3 Tim Berners-Lee, Director, World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), and Senior Research Scientist, Laboratory for Computer Science, MIT Seminars to be held on Mondays, 12-1:30pm, BCSIA Library, Room Littauer 369, John F. Kennedy School of Government This is a brown bag style seminar with limited seating available. The schedule is posted at <http://www.ksg.harvard.edu/iip/HIIP-Seminar.html >. The 2001-2002 HIIP Seminar Series is dedicated to the memory of Michael L. Dertouzos (1936-2001). Thursday, November 29, 2001 12:00 - 1:30 p.m. Bell Hall John F. Kennedy School of Government The Regulatory Policy Program and The Harvard Information Infrastructure Project, Center for Business and Government, John F. Kennedy School of Government invite you to attend a New Directions in Regulation Lunch Seminar with Jerry Hausman on "Broadband Internet Access: The Effect of Asymmetric Regulation" The growing market for current digital cellular service (2G) is beginning to decrease the usage of wireline (traditional) telephone service. Although long distance usage is decreasing, as is local usage in countries where consumers pay to make local calls, wireline telephone service offers broadband (high speed) Internet service which current mobile 2G technology cannot offer. Professor Hausman will explore whether the next generation mobile technology, 3G, will provide an adequate data substitute for wireline service. If it does, the need for regulation for wireline service is likely to disappear along with the numerous distortions in the economy that traditional forms of regulation create. Jerry A. Hausman is the John and Jennie S. MacDonald Professor of Economics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He has taught at MIT for 28 years. He is Director of the MIT Telecommunications Economics Research Program. Professor Hausman teaches a course, "Competition in Telecommunications," to graduate students in economics and business. He is also a Special Consultant to Lexecon, Inc. Professor Hausman received the John Bates Clark Award from the American Economics Association in 1985 for the most outstanding contributions to economics by an economist under 40 years of age. He also received the Frisch Medal from the Econometric Society. Professor Hausman has published numerous papers in econometrics and applied microeconomics. His recent applied research has been in differentiated products and in telecommunications. --- end forwarded text -- ----------------- R. A.

Hausman, New Directions in Regulation Seminar on Broadband Access To: HIIP(a)Harvard.edu Date: Wed, 21 Nov 2001 17:07:35 -0500 HIIP Seminar "Current Developments in U.S. Data Privacy Regulation" Barry J. Hurewitz Government and Regulatory Affairs, Hale and Dorr LLP Monday, November 26, 2001 noon-1:30 p.m. BCSIA Library, Littauer Room 369, 3rd Floor John F. Kennedy School of Government Regulatory protection of personal privacy in the U.S. has risen from obscurity in the past few years. Sector by sector, privacy regulations have transformed e-commerce and invigorated advocates of personal information privacy. Privacy protections have been extended to driver's license information, children's online information, financial data, wireless communications, and health records. A combination of industry self- regulation and government enforcement has shaped emerging practices in consumer online privacy. Now, the change in administrations, the war on terrorism, emerging technologies and economic trouble in the online industry are changing the privacy debate in Washington. The FTC has abandoned its call for new privacy laws, and Congress has expanded law enforcement surveillance powers. What is the U.S. regulatory structure for privacy protection? What is happening to e-privacy? Does better information need to compromise privacy? How will the current trend affect e-business? Barry Hurewitz, a partner in Hale and Dorr's Government & Regulatory Affairs Department, has a multidisciplinary practice focusing on federal legislative and regulatory matters affecting technology companies, including federal technology policy, regulatory compliance, government procurement, and technology transfer. As data privacy and security issues have expanded across the high- technology sector, Mr. Hurewitz has advised clients on U.S. and international data privacy developments, including Internet privacy, health data privacy, financial privacy, the U.S.-EU Safe Harbor program for protecting personal data about EU persons, federal surveillance techniques, and privacy in telecommunications. Hurewitz' practice includes regulatory counseling, developing internal corporate data protection procedures, responding to enforcement actions and private claims, participating in the development of new regulations, and tracking emerging state and federal privacy legislation.

Kennedy School of Government The Regulatory Policy Program and The Harvard Information Infrastructure Project, Center for Business and Government, John F. Kennedy School of Government invite you to attend a New Directions in Regulation Lunch Seminar with Jerry Hausman on "Broadband Internet Access: The Effect of Asymmetric Regulation" The growing market for current digital cellular service (2G) is beginning to decrease the usage of wireline (traditional) telephone service. Although long distance usage is decreasing, as is local usage in countries where consumers pay to make local calls, wireline telephone service offers broadband (high speed) Internet service which current mobile 2G technology cannot offer. Professor Hausman will explore whether the next generation mobile technology, 3G, will provide an adequate data substitute for wireline service. If it does, the need for regulation for wireline service is likely to disappear along with the numerous distortions in the economy that traditional forms of regulation create. Jerry A. Hausman is the John and Jennie S. MacDonald Professor of Economics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He has taught at MIT for 28 years. He is Director of the MIT Telecommunications Economics Research Program. Professor Hausman teaches a course, "Competition in Telecommunications," to graduate students in economics and business.
