Ronald Reagan worked in Hollywood during his youth. He watched a lot of movies during his time in office, one per week. In 1983 he saw WarGames, Sci-Fi about hacking into sensitive computers.
Next day he couldn't get the movie out of his mind and discussed the whole plot with his top advisors and security experts. He asked could someone really hack into our sensitive computers? All were clueless, this started a series of research into it and formation of a whole body for cyber security.
Great man !
