"If you look at the likely targets of an attack by an adversary against the United States, it's not going to be the military computers. It's going to be the private sector infrastructure targets, the major telecommunications switches, the major public power grids."

"I would implore people to go out and read this document by two Chinese colonels called Unrestricted Warfare [see related link below]. It talks about the migration of nation-states to tactics such as information warfare, or financial sector attacks, or conventional terrorism attacks using asymmetrical cells a la Osama bin Laden. So there's definitely this fundamental thinking-- a lot of people have referred to it as a revolution in military affairs, the Gulf War being the first information war. I think it goes above and beyond that, in that the nation-states are now having to resort to these sort of unrestricted methods in order to achieve their objectives."
