Simulated Hack To Test US Government Response

superapecommando writes "Security industry analysts and lawmakers will get an unprecedented chance next week to evaluate how the government might respond to a hack attack on critical infrastructure targets. The Bipartisan Policy Center, a Washington-based non-profit established in 2007 by several lawmakers, will host a simulated nation-wide cyber-attack next Tuesday for a group of former administration and national security officials, who will be playing the roles of Cabinet members."

not only that, but knowing a hack is coming is not exactly realistic.

I'm sure the results will say "we're well prepared for a hack" even though reality proves otherwise.
