McAfee said. “There is active debate as to when a cyberattack reaches the threshold of damage and disruption to warrant 
being categorized as cyberwarfare.” 

The CEO of McAfee said, “Experts disagree about the use of the term ‘cyberwar,’ and our goal at McAfee is not to create 
hype or stoke unwarranted fear"

[Oh, no, not at *all* - rms]

McAfee also called for greater transparency in current discussions on combating cybercrime. The report said, “Too much 
of the debate on policies related to cyberwar is happening behind closed doors.” 

[OK, *that* I can agree with -rms]
