State Department Developing Cyber Toolkit
An anonymous reader writes "The U.S. State Department, known for its recent RFID passport embarassment, seems to have developed a key tool in the Department of Homeland Security's cyber toolkit for federal agencies. There's not much out there on it other than mention of a tool called SandStorm in a recent press release from State's Bureau of Diplomatic Security. According to the site, "SandStorm simultaneously collects, correlates, and analyzes data on multiple computer systems and departs, leaving no trace of its activities. The White House is championing this cyber tool and the Department of Homeland Security has selected it as a cornerstone application for a cyber toolkit being made available to all Federal agencies." Sounds scary to me, but may be a step in the right direction."
a step in what direction? hell?
In fact, it sounds really cool. In fact, *everything* sounds cool with "cyber" in it. No seriously, try it. Cyber jail. Cyber llama. Cyber tubgirl.
Told you so.
Will it run on the Amiga OS?

With the internet being the defacto standard for terrorist communication
In other news, air just became the defacto standard for terrorist respiration.
