OCIPEP DAILY BRIEF Number: DOB02-041 Date: 17 April 2002 

Networks at Risk From Hackers and Terrorists

The Auditor General warned yesterday that the Government of Canada's
critical computer infrastructure is exposed to malicious cyber attacks.
Sheila Fraser indicated that computer systems and networks across
government are at risk from hackers and terrorists because security
standards are out of date and new measures have yet to be developed.
Fraser warned that this problem could undermine the credibility of
e-government initiatives.
