U.S. Reported Ready To Join U.N. Cyberattack Talks

With the growing threat of a cyber attack on the Us, President Obama has agreed to begin negotiations with the U.N. in defending against cyberwar. This has come in response to recent attacks on the US infrastrcture including banks and the government itself.
Cybercrime has the ability to cripple a nations economy, as we have seen in the case of Estonia, and taking action to defend against it should be of utmost importance. The attackers were the same attackers in the TJX case, who were finally indicted .
Negotiations between Russia and the US are at a standstill because as the US wants to prosecute cyber criminals from Russia, the Russian government wants to protect its sovereignty against cyberattacks that have taken place from within. This is the major issue in regarding the cyber attacks because it does help Russia, but it does not help the US defend against these attacks, while Russia remains to stay on the fence about helping.
