Abstract :
The rash of viruses, intrusions, has focused considerable attention on network security in the US. At the same time, experts say the US is not spending enough on network-security research and universities are not producing enough graduates with advanced degrees in the field to conduct the necessary future research. This situation troubles many security experts, who note that much of the US´s national infrastructure - affecting government agencies, corporations, utilities, transportation operations, the armed forces, and so on - runs on potentially vulnerable computer networks
