An exemption from the Freedom of Information Act isn't enough. Companies needs a new legal privilege as an incentive for sharing cyber security details

Personal privacy is not equivalent to corporate secrecy. Personal privacy is essential to a democracy, corporate or government secrecy is anathema to it.

If the corporations are so concerned about industry security, they'll band together and work it out themselves. If not, they won't. And as someone has noted before, if our "national infrastructure" is so vulnerable to "cyber-attack," we need to start firing people and unplugging NICs. Was it not the FAA's recent testimony that no air traffic control systems were dependent upon or connected to the internet? So much for Richard Clarke's hysteria...
