Attack On Free Speech: Obama Will Fight Media to Stop Anti-Jihad Articles - Video
President Barack Obama and U.K. Prime Minister David Cameron sit down Friday to plot the way ahead on cybersecurity, the latest event in a month-long Obama anti-hacking effort that puts the tension between privacy and public safety on display.
Obama, who is hosting Cameron at the White House, cited the destructive hacking attack against Sony Pictures Entertainment in rolling out cybersecurity proposals this week that would encourage companies to turn over evidence of hacks to the government. He will include it in his State of the Union address next week and will attend a cybersecurity summit Feb. 13 in Stanford, California.
Cameron wants Obamas help in getting U.S.-based companies such as Facebook Inc. (FB) and Google Inc. (GOOGL) to do more to stop extremists -- such as those involved in a pair of massacres in Paris -- from communicating in secret. He wants intelligence services and police to have the right to access encrypted message services such as Snapchat and WhatsApp. The Obama administration is trying to get companies to voluntarily cooperate with law enforcement.
Cybersecurity
Both leaders say they are trying to balance security needs with civil liberties, although their proposals have come under criticism from industry groups and privacy advocates.
We face the same challenge in Britain and in America. We are free countries, free societies where we dont want to interfere with the privacy and civil liberties of our citizens, Cameron told Sky News Thursday night. There is a broad agreement that we need to have the powers, in extremis, to intercept communications between terrorists.
He spoke just hours after a raid that broke up an alleged terror plot in Belgium. Police learned of planning for an attack through intercepted phone conversations, according to Le Soir newspaper.
In addition to action to stop extremists, both governments are moving to protect against breeches by hackers. Cameron has invited U.K.-based cybersecurity companies to a breakfast Friday to showcase technologies to defend against hacking attacks.
Last year we saw the damage that these threats can cause to hard-earned reputations and how they undermine the trust consumers have in a company and its products, said Nicole Eagan, chief executive officer for Darktrace, a cybersecurity company based in Cambridge that was invited to the event.
Banks in London and New York plan to simulate a massive cyber-attack on their computer systems later this year as part of joint war games run by the U.S. and U.K. governments.
