How is the progress of US CyberSecurity Program in the past 6 years?

GAO just issued a report on 7/25/2011 on “DOD Faces Challenges In Its Cyber Activities” (http://www.gao.gov/new.items/d1175.pdf). GAO has identified DoD’s CyberSecurity gaps and stated it is insufficient. I believe US definitely needs improvement due to today’s cybersecurity threats coming from organized crime, adversary countries, terrorist groups, Wikileak supporter hacking groups.

Here is a budget estimate and plan on DoD CyberSecurity Program and Effort from 7/29/2011 – Pretty interesting presentation:

GAO has issued a report 6 years ago in May 2005 on CyberSecurity Threats.

GAO has also issued a report 2 years ago in May, 2009 – “Cyber Threats and Vulnerabilities Place Federal Systems at Risk”

What do you think of our progress on Cyber Security Program in the past 6 years? We certainly have improved a lot in recent years, but how do we compare to the other countries?
