Berliner: Is Anyone Prepared for Cyber Attacks? (VIDEO)

News reports said the Howard County government website, along with other government sites across the United States, were hacked to display a message supporting the Islamic State, the terrorist organization.

By 9:45 a.m. Monday, the site had been restored, according to a tweet from Howard County government.

Asked if he believed the Montgomery County government website was adequately protected, Council President Roger Berliner said he wasn’t sure any website could be considered “safe.”
