US military to send cyber soldiers to the battlefield

(Worthy News) – The US Army will soon send teams of cyber warriors to the battlefield, officials said Wednesday, as the military increasingly looks to take the offensive against enemy computer networks.

The Army has for the past three years conducted training for such operations at a huge center in southern California. [ Source:AFP (Read More…) ]
