The U.S. government hasn’t done enough to deter Russia from using cyber and information operations to interfere again in American democracy, according to the head of National Security Agency and U.S. Cyber Command.
Steps so far, such as sanctions and indictments targeting Russians for tampering with the 2016 presidential campaign, haven’t “changed the calculus or the behavior” in Moscow, Admiral Michael Rogers told the Senate Armed Services Committee Tuesday. “They haven’t paid a price at least that’s sufficient to get them to change their behavior,” he said, adding later that “we’re taking steps, but we’re probably not doing enough.”
