Daily Mail : Estonia is recruiting an army of computer experts to defend itself during a cyberwar, almost four years after the country was subjected to a wave of cyber attacks . In May 2007 computer hackers disabled the websites of government ministries, political parties, newspapers, and banks, causing chaos in the small Baltic state. In the years since the attacks, Estonia has mobilized a Cyber Defense League made up of programmers, computer scientists, and software engineers. The league is a volunteer organization that in wartime would function under unified military command.
