This document discusses the history of U.S. cybersecurity policy through Clegg's theory of circuits of power. It examines how power has circulated through episodic, social integration, and system integration circuits over time. Key events discussed include the creation of the Department of Homeland Security after 9/11, various cybersecurity breaches in the 2000s, and Obama's 2013 executive order establishing a cybersecurity framework. Turf wars between government agencies, executive orders, legislation, and public backlash have all significantly impacted the development of U.S. cybersecurity policy over the past few decades.
