After all the hack attacks hitting stores, Sony Pictures, even the military — the government has a new cyber security plan.

FOX News Radio’s Jon Decker has more from the White House.

A new plan and a new agency being unveiled today to combat the deepening threat from cyber attacks.

The Cyber Threat Intelligence Integration Center’s mission will be to combine and coordinate intelligence from around the government and help policymakers respond quickly to a variety of cyber threats.

Some critics question why a new agency is needed, when the government already has several dedicated to monitoring, analyzing and combating cyber threat data.
