Details of Cyber Storm War Games Released

Posted by Soulskill on from the defending-against-gravitic-mines dept.

I Don't Believe in Imaginary Property writes "Apparently, the participants in the U.S. 'Cyber Storm' war games are familiar with the Kobayashi Maru, because some of them tried to cheat by hacking the games themselves. They also prepare for some very interesting scenarios. Among other things, the organizers are worried about having too many people on the 'No Fly' list show up at an airport, finding 'mystery liquids' in the subway, and having bloggers reveal the classified location of railcars with hazardous materials. The Department of Homeland Security has already analyzed the results of the games, and plans to hold 'Cyber Storm 2' in March."

    These hacking games are a great way to put the latest in security technology to the test, but I am more concerned with games such as Diablo III. When will Blizzard announce Diablo III. I hope they don't make it into an MMORPG like World of Warcraft. That would just ruin the Diablo franchise. If they did that, it would really only be serving the fans of WoW and there will still be all of those Diablo fans left with nothing new to chew on. I want Diablo III damnit!
