How do they determine damage???

British programmer causes $700,000 damage to the Pentagon, Nasa, and the Johnson Space Center. I found a sample essay, possibly better pay essays, writing about reading.

Where do they come up with those numbers? Honestly... Could they have stopped him if they had spent $700,000 more on network security? It's not like a DDoS'd them anyway... Is that the over priced number of the work it took to CORRECT the flaws in the first place? Is the cost the money it costs the organizations now to be proactive? Or is it what he says and its the U.S. making an example out of him...??? Can you do himself or essay topic. I received excellent.

... And why is data like this on the Internet??? The government obviously has money so why don't they setup relay services or third party networks that are not on the largest public network in the world... The company I work for has many multinational and domestic corporate headquarters. Our internal servers don't use the internet to communicate to each other. I can understand how small corps don't have the money to do the above and resort to setting up VPN's over the Internet but why does the government use public networks for their data???????

Or is it just a question of him hacking the public web servers which have separate interfaces for their internal networks... Hmmm...
