How the Secret Service Protects the President Against New Cyber Threats

[Informer]

Foiling assassins and breaking up bank scams is all in a day's work for Secret Service agents. But in recent years, the job has grown harder. Today, agents must also protect the President against a host of new Internet threats and track criminals to far-flung places.

The Secret Service, which began as a Civil War anti-counterfeiting squad, today has a mission that lies at the intersection of Washington, Wall Street, and the Internet. To get an idea of how the storied agency is faring in the cyber age, Fortune spoke to a long-time veteran of the service and others familiar with its work.

Secret service has nothing to do with cyber threat proctection kazi yao ni ulinzi yani visible protection tu kazi ya ulinzi wa cyber threat ni kazi ya NSA ( National Security Agency)

Na ulinzi dhidi ya threat kutoka nje ya US ni kazi ya CIA ( Central Intelligence Agency)

Na ulinzi dhidi ya mashambulizi ya chemical , biological , radiological , nuclear ni kazi ya DTRA ( Defense Threat Reduction Agency) ambayo iko chini ya Department of Defense

Wenzetu kila taasisi inafanya kazi yake na kila taasisi lazima itoe mchango wake ktk kuhakikisha kiongozi mkuu wa nchi anakuwa safe & sound
