Senate Committee Tackles Cyber Threats

The Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee will wade into the congressional cybersecurity debate on Tuesday with a pair of hearings -- one in the full committee that will focus on developing a national strategy to fight high-tech threats and another in the Federal Financial Management Subcommittee that will cover the Obama administration's tech priorities and how agencies can use technology to become more efficient and secure.

Hearing #1:
Stewart Baker, former Homeland Security Department assistant secretary
James Lewis, Center for Strategic and International Studies
Alan Paller, research director for the SANS Institute
Tom Kellermann, vice president at Core Security Technologies

Hearing #2:

, director of IT management issues at GAO
