Means it falls under the purview now what you might ask is well what to what would china want with the states and now we cant speak for. inside the chinese government but we can discuss perhaps. why they might want that i mean for example that data can be used these enormous data sets to try and target advertising to target specific messages that perhaps promotes the chinese governments there also is the possibility that you could scan that data for people who are critical of the chinese governm...

. that citizens saw effectively nothing has changed we are still not going to exclude any company from the outset but we are drawing up a catalog of detailed tight security restrictions for the on an oath that means that the german ministry for id security will conduct checks on key components of the 5 g. network providers themselves however could merely be required to submit proof of trustworthiness thats enough for the german government but not for security officials and theres concern among p...

Figure out how to step away from the brink of war. >> the "wall street journal" had a report that its not that clear to many experts that it was iran. do you think it absolutely was iran that launched these attacks? >> the reports that ive gotten, the type of weaponry, drones and missiles that were used definitely a state actor maybe using non-state actors is probably the politest way of saying it. >> proxies. >> i think we all believe that we know who the culprit is. why did it get to this leve...

Striking other targets in that case? we need to take a more direct action in response. carley: they continue to act up. we see repeated behavior from iran. is a drone expert what can you tell us about this attack and why do you think us intelligence is saying it is looking like iran is responsible even with human claiming responsibility? >> quickest way to tell that is by which these drones have to travel to conduct a strike on the saudi oil facility, they dont have the capability without some s...

State actor behind these attacks. >> justifiably, president trump has hinted that he will respond with military action. how likely is it that that is the answer to this attack at this juncture or is it perhaps too premature? >> i would say its a bit premature. the reason that i say that is we really need to make sure that we get the attribution piece correct and, you know, weve had the experience with iraq, weve had the experience with several other things that have gone on in our past, both in ...

The images, you can see very pinpoint strikes that have gone into those oil tanks. there is no damage beyond where the missile actually penetrated the tank. and it shows that not only do they have fairly sophisticated explosive missiles, but with the attempted warheads. but they also have very precise intelligence. the fact that they have that precise intelligence indicates that there is some kind of a state actor behind these attacks. >> and just finally president trump has hinted that he will ...

Saying that these satellite images they shal clearly they show definitively that the attacks come from the direction of iran or iraq rather than from yemen how likely do you assess this claim that it does have a little bit the litany that indeed this came from a sophisticated state actor so i mean the direction of the tick seems to be quite clear if you compound us with a large image with open source material for example who were napster can clearly see in the direction of the turquoise robin no...

Iraq rather than from yemen how likely do you assess this claim that it does have a little bit validity that indeed this came from a sophisticated state actor so i mean the direction of the tick seems to be quite clear if you compound the satellite image with open source material for example who were members who can clearly see that the direction of the attack was robin north almost when its so not really yemen. i think the scale is more indicative of pacific and sophisticated than the precision...

That something like this an exploit like this is generally so expensive so technically prohibitive that normally it would be a state actor or someone like a china russia north korea even the us is capable of something like this which would mean that most likely it was targeting a specific group dissidents journalists you dont know which means more than likely mainstream consumers like you you would probably not be wrapped up in this but you dont know because theres not enough information yet to ...

Do you think now if the feds called upstate officials, it would be a different response? >> i think there would be a different response. i dont think thats the question i would ask, anderson. you see there was failed legislation about a federal response. the problem is are you going to call 50 states and try to tell them each of you has independent systems, lets try to secure all those systems and help you defend yourselves against a state actor like russia or china? i realize the states are ind...
