Panelists will include Mike Rogers, former chairman, House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence; General (Ret.)

The discussion will be moderated by Ellen Nakashima of The Washington Post.

The cyber attack on Sony Pictures Entertainment — widely attributed to North Korea over the film, The Interview — is the latest in a series of major network intrusions that have received wide media coverage. Unlike previous attacks on Target, Home Depot and others, this one resulted in a national discussion on cybersecurity and the appropriate response to cyber attacks, resulting in the initial decision to not release the movie.
Among the questions to be discussed are:
- How should the Sony attack be classified? As an act of industrial espionage or an attack on the United States?
- What is the significance of the U.S. ability to attribute the attack to North Korea?
- What we can learn about declaratory policy in cyber space from this incident?
