 "A group of key high-tech executives agreed at a White House meeting earlier
  today to move forward on a plan to set minimum security standards for big
  companies that connect to the Internet, MSNBC.com has learned. The meeting
  was attended by Microsoft, IBM, Oracle, Boeing, the National Security Agency
