Is USA Loosing Data in Cyber War?

As per US defense official, US is loosing enough data to fill Library of Congress  and authorities have failed to anticipate the threat before. The Library of Congress is the largest library in the world and it archives millions of books, photographs, maps and recordings. James Miller, principal deputy under secretary of defense for policy said that more than 100 foreign spy agencies and criminal group are trying to access the US Computer. He continued that US system have been investigated 1000 times and scanned million times a day.
'The evolving cyber threat had outpaced our ability to defend against it. We are experiencing damaging penetrations - damaging in the sense of loss of information. And we don't fully understand our vulnerabilities,' Mr Miller said.
Miller's comments came when the Obama administration develops a national strategy to secure U.S. digital networks and the Pentagon is building a new military command for cyber warfare which is capable of both offensive and defensive operations. The Senate last week confirmed National Security Agency Director Keith Alexander to head the new US Cyber Command.


Hackers have already got into the U.S. electrical grid and stole intellectual property, corporate secrets and money, according to the FBI's cybercrime unit. In one incident, a bank lost $10 million in cash in a day. US officials said  that there were attempts from China to penetrate their network before. Miller pointed out another interesting aspect that US needs to produce more computer programmer in the future.

Macam-macam Penyakit Dunia yang Dikenal oleh Masyarakat Aceh

Penyakit donya (dunia) dalam pengetahuan orang Melayu seperti di Aceh adalah penyakit yang disebabkan oleh hal-hal supranatural atau adikodrati, atau tersebab manusia yang bersekutu dengan jin, setan, atau makhuk halus yang jahat. Aceh adalah salah satu suku terbesar di Propinsi Aceh. Kebesaran suku Aceh tidak hanya tampak dari kesenian dan kepahlawanan masyarakatnya, tetapi juga pengetahuan mereka terhadap penyakit dan penyembuhannya. Bagi mereka, sakit adalah hal serius yang harus disikapi. Karena itu, mereka mengabadikannya dalam sebuah pengetahuan tentang klasifikasi penyakit dan penyembuhannya (Meuraxa, Dado 1956; Rusdi Sufi dkk, 2006; Rusdi Sufi dkk, 2004).
