The Obama administration is developing a plan that would establish the responsibilities and roles that governments and businesses would carry out in response to a widespread cyberattack, a strategy that would be similar to how the public and private sectors’ collaboration after a natural disaster such as a hurricane, a White House official said on Tuesday.”What is our plan for a digital disaster?
