Government watchdog says US weapons systems are vulnerable to hacks, but the Pentagon is slow to act

A government watchdog has said the Department of Defense has not done enough to protect critical weapons systems from cyberattacks.
The new report out of the Government Accountability Office on Tuesday said that the Pentagon has “not made weapon cybersecurity a priority,” and, although there have been some improvements over the years, the department’s “nascent understanding” of how to secure weapons systems has left officials scrambling on “how best to address weapon systems cybersecurity.”
