The United States government's 2015 budget includes a record $14 billion to build infrastructure that will protect federal network infrastructure from cyberattacks and hackers .
In the budget plan of Barack Obama's administration, you mention that you demand more and more advanced solutions for protecting against cyberattacks, as well as greater cooperation between the public and private sectors, as well as with other countries.
It remains unknown whether the Republican-controlled Congress will approve the full $14 billion requested by the US government, but it is clear that cybersecurity is starting to rise high on the agenda, even among American politicians. It is worth noting that only a few weeks have passed since the attack on Sony Pictures over the film “The Interview,” which mocked North Korean leader Kim Jong-un. And a few days later, North Korea’s network infrastructure was hit by a cyberattack that many have described as American retaliation.
