When I read this morning that North Korea had hacked into Sony Pictures and ostensibly stopped them from releasing the movie, “The Interview,” I was floored.  I guess the movie was a comedy about two journalists sent to kill North Korean leader Kim Jong Il.  It got me thinking about my trip to the Air and Space Museum in DC.  I was awed by the American ingenuity (and, I hate to admit it but the French ingenuity with the Concorde) but what inspired me the most was the idea that these vehicles represented.  America needed to be the best and the best is what we built.  Our grandparents were leaders in the world and sacrificed everything to keep our country safe and prosperous.  The dangers today are just as real as they were thirty years ago and it’s my generation that needs to rise to the occasion.  Cyber security is a big deal, no doubt, and perhaps we should work together to build the Blackbird of the cyber defense.  We owe that to the generations who sacrificed before us.
