With the rise of cyber attacks by various countries such as Russia, China and North Korea, the demand for cyber security, both in the private and public sector, has become more and more necessary. Countries such as Russia, China and North Korea have invested heavily in resources dedicated to launching attacks against different organizations.
North Korea has become infamous for its attack on Sony following the movie about their leader, Kim Jong Un. China has also faced its fair share of allegations with companies like Amazon finding small chips located on server racks in which confidential information was being processed. Russia itself has faced allegations of hacking into the Democratic Party and exposing the various emails.
Like many other countries, Japan has found itself ill-prepared for the attacks as the new minister appointed for cybersecurity has little knowledge of the field and has established his role as simply a document reader. If anything, his justification of using a smartphone, not even a computer, is equivalent to suggesting that familiarity with modern technology grants him the knowledge needed to fulfill a highly technical position.
