Speaking at the Heritage Foundation last fall, former CIA and NSA director Michael Hayden noted there are different standards of proof. One of the problems he said he has when talking to certain audiences, is they want a standard of proof for attribution of malicious actions, “affiliated with the American court system — beyond all reasonable doubt.”
****“I can’t tell you the last thing we ever got beyond any reasonable doubt. Our job is to enable action in the face of lingering doubt,” he added of the intelligence community.

Do you ever think we are in the mist of an active Cyber War and our Political Leaders never informed the People and the Generals are woefully prepared for this new dimension of warfare??

I am not sure how long it took for the intelligence agencies to help figure out the Yahoo breaches, but let's look at this from another angle. It only took 3 weeks to make a determination that pointed the finger at North Korea for the Sony hack, and the combined groups of the NSA, CIA, and the FBI under the auspices of the DNI could not provide ANY link between the Trump campaign and the Russians in 6 months. Does this tell us anything?
