  1. When President Obama launched the position that we know as the "cybersecurity czar," he outlined three specific responsibilities that the job would entail. These responsibilities include coordinating any government response to major computer attacks and incidents, working with the federal budget offices to ensure the government has the appropriate funding to deal with those incidents, and generally overseeing the government's cyber policies. These responsibilities require working with a number of major government agencies, including the Department of Defense and the Department of Homeland Security, making certain that the government is prepared to deal with all computer threats from both foreign and domestic sources.
