The network community and the security community need to collaborate as much as possible to defeat the threats.
I'm British and i'm hoping to make UK as secure as possible.
Umm. You missed the *very first* principle of proper security design. It shouldn't be "as secure as possible". It should be "as secure as it needs to be". I mean, I suppose you *could* go with mil-spec security, where all materials are kept in a locked safe under armed guard, and you had to fill out paperwork for each piece of paper you took out of the safe, and then more paperwork when you returned it. But did you *really* want all that effort just to check the headlines on bbc.com?
