This is a really strange assertion.  Lots of people have dies as a
result of cyber attack, and lots have been saved by it as well.  WW2 has
plenty of examples of defeating protection in information systems in
order to gain intelligence that saved/killed thousands of people.  In
nearly every moden military action, hundreds to thousands of lives hang
in the balance and people live or die directly because of the success or
failure of protection in information systems.
