Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats warned Friday of the intensifying threat of cyberattacks against US infrastructure. He called Russia “the most aggressive foreign” actor in attempts to disrupt and divide America.
“These actions are persistent, they’re pervasive and they are meant to undermine America’s democracy on a daily basis, regardless of whether it is election time or not,” Coats said at an event at the Hudson Institute. “The warning signs are there. The system is blinking. And it is why I believe we are at a critical point.”
Coats compared the warning signs to those ahead of the September 11 attacks: “Here we are, nearly two decades later, and I’m here to say the warning lights are blinking red again.”
