Re: Lawful offensive cyber capabilities

And when you need to communicate with the public, which is an important element of government work, your "brilliant" idea goes to rats. The government can't work air-gapped from the public and as soon as a gateway is provided to the rest of the world malware and cyber criminals have a way into the system.

BTW, what makes you think government doesn't already do this? this article rather suggests that they have already thought of, and implemented, running government systems encrypted over public networks.
