foreign intelligence service stole 24,000 files from a U.S. defense contractor earlier this year, a dramatic illustration of the threat confronting the Pentagon as it works to bolster military computer security, a top defense official said on Thursday.

Deputy Defense Secretary William Lynn revealed the theft as he unveiled a new Pentagon cybersecurity strategy that designates cyberspace as an "operational domain" like sea, air and land where U.S. forces will practice, train and prepare to defend against attacks.

it is the bad scene as hackers are stealing important info and this info can be used for terrorism.
It doesn't show the inefficiency of their defense security system but the intelligence of the "Foreign Intelligence Service".No security system is full proof, only its vulnerability can be reduced.

Arise Awake and Rest Not till the Goal is Achieved.
cyber theft is serious matter for every nation. it seems that our security systems are not as strong that can beat the theft actions.
