Pentagon’s top general to address cyberespionage, ballistic missile defense in South Korea

Marine Gen. Joseph F. Dunford Jr., the chairman of the Joint Chiefs, said that his annual meeting with senior South Korean military officials will address everything from bolstering ballistic missile defense to fortifying computer networks against cyberespionage. Dunford called the meeting a “forcing function” that dates back to 1978 and keeps South Korean and U.S. military officials assessing each other’s priorities.
