Israel's army chief concerned about cyber-attack.

Israel Army Chief: Future War Possible on Many Fronts

October 10, 2013

In this article the Chief of Israel Army expressed concern that a future war could be conducted on many fronts. Besides missile and terrorist attacks the army chief is gravely concerned with the possibility of cyber-attacks. He stated, "It is possible that there will be a cyber-attack on a site supplying the daily needs of Israeli citizens; that traffic lights would stop working or the banks would be paralyzed." A cyber-attack although hypothetical was said to be in the realm of the possible.

Israel may sense a great danger of imminent attack due to its geo-political position, but such an attack could happen against the US as well.
