The governments of the USA have to completely disconnect it's infrastructure from the internet. They don't have to do anything else. There can be infrastructure that is interoffice and interdepartment, but, none of it connected to the net.
Any interface needed with the pubic has to be a separate infrastructure. In other words, The Department of Homeland Security has it's primary operation of cyber infrastructure offline. The places where it interfaces with the public is a completely separate infrastructure with neither connected to each other.
The NSA is going to demand their way with the cyber security of the country. So, the NSA infrastructure will be connected to the net, but, not to the entire department or other agencies.
This is not a big deal. It was completely wrong for government to think they had control of infrastructure security. It's nonsense. There is no such thing.
If Wall Street is bummed out over that reality, then I remind them; they have their own infrastructure at the bottom of the ocean called 'long lines.' Those are exclusive to Wall Street by the way.
The problem is that Wall Street sees profits at the cost of their own security. That is not a government issue and should not concern the American people.

From a robot (click here) in line in Sydney to the crowds for the visiting pope in New York, this year's iPhone launch festivities had a few extra wrinkles.
The cyber Wall Street want more and more profits even if it means using it's own secured infrastructure to accommodate it. It is not a government problem. If Wall Street wants to compromise it's own infrastructure, they make that decision autonomously. Then Wall Street wonders what governments have against oligarchs with their own militias.
