DDoS attacks require global response, Gillibrand says
Citing the recent wave of distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks on U.S. and South Korean government sites, Senator Kirsten Gillibrand of New York has proposed legislation to bolster U.S. efforts to work with foreign governments on cybersecurity.
Called the Fostering a Global Response to Cyber Attacks Act, the bill would require the secretary of state to report to Congress on efforts to encourage international cooperation in improving cybersecurity.
