Vint Cerf on Internet Challenges 

The co-inventor of the Internet, Vint Cerf, talks about Internet Challenges, ranging from vulnerable computer systems, to insure networks, to mobile security, to patch-hungry software, and so on. Vint Cerf and his partner Robert E. Kahn are believed to create the first TCP/IP protocol suite when they worked at DARPA.

What's really interesting is the question of "What is the science of computer science?". Fact is, in many places, CS programs have been a quick job training - Java/VB programming, a bit data structure and SQL, very superficial knowledge of OS, and you are done (oh, don't forget claiming you can do website development after you know HTML and Frontpage!).

These kinds of quick training apparently do not provide sufficient background for students to understand those challenges, let alone tackle one of them. But, what cares?
