Abstract
This chapter describes the commencement of national cybersecurity policy in Israel, as evident in non-military information assurance efforts, early e-government and Web services, and Internet connectivity. The policy adopting was relatively slow and far from what IT-security personnel advocated; only some civilian sectors of the government reluctantly started to pay attention to information security. The erroneous expectation that computers alone would improve cybersecurity receives repeated disappointment.
