U.S. Seeks To Define Rules On Cyberwar : NPR.
NPR reported that General Keith Alexander, head of the newly created U.S. Cyber Command and of the NSA, speaking at the Center for Strategic and International Studies in Washington on June 3, 2010, called for for rules and laws to be written concerning fighting in cyber space.
"Alexander cited the example of a country launching a cyberattack against the U.S. or another nation from computers based in a third country. 'It's not unlike warfare where you have armed conflict in one state, and somebody attacks [into that state] from a neutral state,' Alexander said. 'There are laws of land warfare that deal with that. We now have to look at that in the light of cyberspace.'"
