Undersea Cable Cuts

Undersea cables are a weak spot in internet connectivity worldwide and with all the recent undersea outages taking place around the world, we need to be concerned that in the US and Canada that these cables are unprotected. Not only do we need to worry about the cables under the ocean but as they come up f to above ground locations they are often unprotected and visibly marked allowing anyone who wants to do damage to do so easily.

This is yet another area we need to be focused on to ensure that terrorism does not bring down global communications/commerce.
