White House defends cybersecurity plan
May 31, 2011
The White House is pushing back against reported criticism of its cybersecurity plan by US Chamber of Commerce. "Our proposal strikes a critical balance between strengthening security, preserving privacy and civil liberties protections, and fostering continued economic growth," said White House spokesman Nicholas Shapiro. "The Chamber's draft document certainly misinterprets some of the administration's thinking and we are confident that those misinterpretations will be fixed as we continue ongoing conversations with the Chamber on this important issue," Shapiro said.
