Episode #105: Jack Goldsmith on North Korea, the FBI, and Attribution of the Sony Attack
This week, Ben and Jack sat down in sunny Palo Alto to discuss what we know about the Sony Pictures cyber-attack, the FBI\u2019s response, and the lingering questions about the credibility of the US government\u2019s claim that North Korea was behind the attack. They explore the tradeoffs inherent in explaining or proving the governments attribution claims, and whether or not the FBI should do so if it will \u201ctip their hand\u201d to the hackers planning future attacks. If technical capabilities cannot solve the public element of the attribution problem, how far should the government go in producing evidence regarding its claims?\xa0
