Obama's announcements follow the massive hack of Sony Pictures late last year. The attackers crippled Sony's computer network and leaked unreleased films, inflammatory e-mails and financial documents.

The announcements also follow a year of high-profile news stories about hacks of major retail chains in the US, including Home Depot, Target, Staples and others.

Probably the measures will also include more monitoring. The past has shown that this does not provide perfect security thought, otherwise the Boston bombings or the massacre of Charlie Hebdo would not have happened. Sometimes you better pull out the root of the evil.
