the right way? are we making sure that we're keeping the american people safe, number one. are we also being true to our civil liberties and our privacy and our values. >> i understand it's a tough job, and god forbid there's another terror attack. every one of us will be second guessing you and that's extremely difficult. >> i volunteered. >> my question is, do you have any personal regrets. you're not addressing the facts the publish statements you made to address the public. james clapper went up, got a question from a democrat, not a republican, about whether some of this was going on, and he denied it. doesn't this deflate the public trust? he's still on the job. >> i understand. what i'm saying is this. that yes, these are tough problems. that i am glad to have the privilege of tackling. your initial question was whether the statements that i made six months ago are ones that i don't stand by, and what i'm saying is that the statements i made then are entirely consistent with the statements that i make now, which is that we believed that we had scrubbed these programs and st

. >> tom wagner from irvine, california, talking to us this morning and hopefully he'll have a safe and easy flight home to louisiana, thanks for your time today. >> thank you. >> you never want stories, it's better when you have a no story travel experience and he's got one to tell. >> that's a doozy. >>> coming up next on "new day," we followed the story of michael morton. you remember this, a man who spent time behind bars for a crime that he did not commit. well it also happened to this man. so why are prosecutors standing by their original conviction? >>> we old told but prince harry's race in the south pole. it's suddenly on hold, but is the expedition really over? we'll talk about that, coming up. every day we're working to be an even better company - and to keep our commitments. and we've made a big commitment to america. bp supports nearly 250,000 jobs here. through all of our energy operations, we invest more in the u.s. than any other place in the world. in fact, we've invested over $55 billion here in the last five years - making bp america's largest energy investor. our

still up in the air. let us know when it comes in for a safe landing. >> if you will could complain -- if you could complain for being late or kept on the ground and get an upgrade, i wish i'd known that about, oh, 20 years ago. this guy sounds like he knows what he's doing. >> you have to catch up. >> there's going fob more on this 5:00 eastern on the situation room." >> oh when it comes to math, science and reading, guess who is tops the world? shanghai. well, what about those american kids? >> not so good. not even the top ten. in fact, they're not even the top 30. we'll explain when we come back. >> that hurts, hurts. a subaru... ...are the hands that do good things for the whole community: the environment, seniors, kids, and animals. that's why we created the share the love event. by the end of this year, the total donated by subaru could reach 35 million dollars. you get a great deal on a new subaru. we'll donate 250 dollars to a choice of charities that benefit your community. it feels good to be a helping hand. she loves a lot of it's what you love about her. but your erecti

believe the two attacks were linked because of the explosives used in both attacks contained identical shrapnel fragments and they believe the bombings were plotted in the same place which we can assume fairly safely the northern region in southern russia quite close to sachi and not 00 miles away where russia is fighting insurgency. >> when you talk about the proximity and you look at being less than six weeks away from the opening ceremony of the games, i'm wondering how confident officials there are about the security of the games? i was just reading the organizing committee president of the soch oni games called th the safest games ever. >> they are trying to give the impression it is the safest games ever. around sochi, i'm sure the security will be extremely high. officials are being, as you can understand, fairly cagey exactly what their security measures are but they say each if nthe wake of these bombings they have do change them but the terrorists don't have to attack sochi. as in volgograd, they can attack other targets and they have to travel through certain areas so that i

rates but you want to be most safe. at this point forward, are we saying that no matter what, using our debit cards, we're just so much more vulnerable, we need to lean toward our credit cards or what will this do and how will it influence how we buy things now? >> debit cards are great, budgetary control, no interest, no late fees, no due dates, they're great right until they get stolen, then they're terrible. because you have very limited protections and it's your money being taken versus the credit card where it's the bank's money that is being taken and you have ultimate protections. i would seriously consider converting from a debit card to a credit card. having a debit card is great, but it acts as an incentive to keep a large amount of money in your checking account where it is extremely vulnerable to hackers versus a credit card where there's not a dime of your money on that card. it's the bank's money. all this is is you being kind of in control of these impulses to use the card and getting yourself -- >> credit card companies love this because they'll make more money off y

. that is to go to the threat and try to eliminate the threat while keeping students and staff safe. within 20 minutes of the time of the report of the shooting, our deputies found the suspect dead inside the school. currently right now it appears to us that that shooter is dead as a result of a self-inflicted gunshot wound. however, that determination remains under investigation and we will continue to look at those details. at this point in time, we have victims advocates with the families and the victims at the hospital, and we have investigators with the family of the shooter. we are beginning our investigation now as a crime scene. we have evacuated the entire school. the school was evacuated very slowly, deliberately and meticulously. we wanted to ensure that all of our students number one were safe and secondly, we wanted to ensure that we had no other suspects or individuals that were collaborators with our shooter. although it will remain under investigation, we at this point in time believe the shooter that is deceased is the only individual that was armed in the school to

? if a nage ever major retailer like target can be hacked, how can we trust our data to be safe anywhere we use our credit cards? >> i think this is a new trend. i think if you look at history, tj max was a historical breach. target has a pretty well known program that they try to protect their information. so it shows no one is impervious to these attacks. we need to step up our game to try to protect the sensitive data. >>> can you tell us in a way that we would understand how this hack occurred? >> well, what the reports are saying, if you look at how these systems are set up. they're called point of sales systems. you scan your debit card in. it encrypts that data and it puts it into the processor. for what it looks like, hackers broke in and they targeted the point of sale systems and they loaded it in. up to 40 million credit cards were potentially compromised. that's a big payday. targeting all those sterls all at once to feed it back during the busiest times was really sophisticated and definitely plan and orchestrated and something we need to be concerned with later on.

on and asked for iran's help because they had offered help in the past in finding -- in helping us locate and return him safely. >> okay. separately, there was a high profile execution in north korea yesterday. what's your assessment of what's behind this execution? is this kim trying to consolidate power? >> so we're going to continue to monitor jay carney's briefing at the white house. they're moving on to north korea right now. but you just heard him hem make the case for the release of robert levinson, the former fbi agent who's been held captive, maybe in iran, maybe some place else for the last seven years. it's now been revealed by the associated press and "the washington post" that he was in fact, working pore the cia in some sort of fashion when he was abducted in iran seven years ago. let's bring in our cnn law enforcement analyst, the former fbi assistant director tom fuentes. tom, i understand you worked with robert levinson at the fbi. you knew him. tell us a little bit about this man. >> yes, wolf. we worked together not directly together because i was running the fbi

infiltrated and others that have protections in place so that when i use my card, i'm safe? >> well, just because you don't detect the attack doesn't mean you haven't been attacked. >> hmm. >> you know, it's -- what we tell all of our clients is, it's not a matter of if you'll be attacked, it's a matter of when. and it's just -- it's just the way that we deal with -- i know with target, some people are starting to say, well, these p.i.n. numbers had to have been decrypted, because our p.i.n. was actually compromised. however, there's a very good chance they could have been hit somewhere else. >> so then, david, really quickly, what do i do with this information as a consumer? what do i do when i go shopping, if i can't count on the retailer to, you know, make sure that i'm protected? what can i do as a consumer when i use my card, or are you telling me don't use my card? >> well, yeah, there's a couple of things can you do. always use signature. don't ever put your p.i.n. number in. try to use credit cards and not debit cards. that way, the money's not taken out of your account. if you ca

using a card. >> i would have thought it was guaranteed before. >> right. >> and a lot of people, i can tell based on my twitter feed, that people do not feel safe there and are not willing to go there. it may take a long time to repair some of this damage. it makes me think, if these guys, these thieves pumd off something this size, i don't know what other retailer might be next. >> what could be the impact of these class action lawsuits? >> that's something that's going to have all of the companies getting on their toes. one of the questions that i have about the lawsuits that are reportedly being filed is are they really customers that are upset or are they lawyers saying, i'm filing on behalf the customers. i think it's only $5 million worth of damages. i think we can expect to see that number go way up. target's really got a problem. >> folks on twitter and friends of mine feel like 10% is kind of chinsy. only 10%? >> still, what a hit for them to be taking at this time of year. the number two retailer in the country. this is a massive hit on them for many, many fronts. i'm goi
