The Major Cyberincident Investigations Board

One reason that airplanes are so safe is that crashes are investigated by government agencies; the results are published, and the lessons from one crash go into future airplane design, pilot training, and technology to prevent another. There´s nothing like that in the computer world, which is one reason why we see the same failures over and over again. The authors suggests that we need a Major Cyberincident Investigations Board, which would be charged with performing—and publishing—detailed analyses of the causes of significant computer-related incidents.
