Cyber-Security Chief on Wave of Web Attacks
The man often credited as being the father of internet defense says it's still unclear where a recent wave of hacking attacks targeting the U.S. financial industry are coming from.
Gil Shwed is the co-founder and CEO of Check Point Software Technologies. Many recognize him and the company's other co-founder, Marius Nacht, as the world's pioneers in cyber-security. Shwed developed his expertise designing systems for an elite technology unit in the Israel Defense Forces years before the internet became a daily part of our lives.
Shwed said today "Iran is definitely capable of launching these kinds of attacks but so is just about any other developed country."
