&gt;&quot;“Unfortunately, the technology underpinning our critical infrastructure is inherently insecure because of decades of software developers not being held liable for defective technology. That has led to incentives where features and speed to market have been prioritized against security, leading our nation vulnerable to cyber invasion. That has to stop,” Easterly said.&quot;<p>How they can make software liable when nobody, including government wants to pay for security. The development and testing costs will rise maybe 10 times. Alternative why connect critical things to Internet at all? Pay through the nose and keep physically separate and secure network.
