Nearly a decade has passed since the
National Academy of Engineers declared
Cyber Security a "grand challenge for the
next century." Every day there is news on
ways in which cyber security challenges
and responses are complicating every
aspect of our lives. Can the challenge be
solved?
As a first step to solving any problem, one
must understand its nature. So, it is
important for all cyber security analysts to
keep on top of news stories in the field. In
this discussion forum we will do just that
with the hope that everyone will make it a
daily habit throughout their career.

Your Essay should highlight the evolution of hacking from individuals to corporations (and their predominate locations) to cyber warfare. Include at least 5 different locations and events (more is better) to tell the story of how hacking has changed over time from the 1940's to present. Use your specific events to illustrate both when and what happened in each of these locations/events that changed the face of hacking as well as the global nature of hacking. The events should be presented in time order. Also include images or figures, and any additional visual aids to help tell your story.
