New cyber force would cost up to $11 billion to start, commission says

A proposed new cyber force would require a significant upfront investment of up to $11 billion, according to a recent commission report. This move aims to bolster national security against increasing cyber threats, but the high initial cost raises questions about funding and long-term sustainability. The implications extend beyond just financial considerations; it signals a strategic shift in how governments prepare for and respond to cyber warfare, potentially reshaping international cyber defense policies and cooperation.
