Dan O’Dowd, Founder of The Dawn Project, commented in UK newspaper City A.M. in relation to the potential threat of cyberattacks from Russia, which could cripple UK and US infrastructure.
““To cripple the UK, Putin does not need nuclear weapons,” explained cybersecurity expert Dan O’Dowd, who created the operating systems for Lockheed Martin’s F-35 Fighter Jets, the Boeing B1-B Intercontinental Nuclear Bomber and NASA’s Orion Crew Exploration Vehicle.
“Britain and the US are both vulnerable to cyberattacks against their infrastructure because we have connected up to the internet all the things our lives depend on, using software riddled with bugs.””
