Clinton pushes ROTC like cyber security corps
President Clinton called cyber attacks a major national security threat and proposed funding to boost research and train a corps of cyber-sleuths. The plan includes a government ROTC style scheme paying students to study information security who would then serve several years at a federal agency. He asks Congress to raise cyber defense spending from 1.7 to 2 billion dollars, with much of the increase for research and development.
