alt Hacker NewsHow is it NSA/DHS negligence? Neither is responsible for securing the infrastructure of state and local governments nor private companies.
They should provide guidance, but I’m not sure we really want the NSA inside of networks more than they already are.
If voters and CEOs don’t want to spend the money required to secure their infrastructure, that’s on them.

It is not a duty nor their responsibility. It is however bad for nation overall if companies don't dedicate some resources to security, so a sane administration will do something to advocate for it.
DHS has the Cybersecurity & Infrastructure Security Agency. Their job is to help organizations in the US with protecting public services and physical infrastructure. They are partially responsible for the outcomes.
