All of these rhetorical strategies work together in order to convince the reader of the importance of solving this issue that might otherwise go unnoticed or underestimated. They may not always be effective in the proving of Schliefers argument, but the essence of the argument is that action must be taken, and all of the rhetorical strategies that Schliefer utilizes in the article support the need to take action. This is successful usage of rhetorical devices, as the issue of cyber attacks on America is one that only directly affects a select group of people, only through specific use of rhetorical devices can the importance of the issue reach those outside of its direct influence.

Revised

The way these rhetorical strategies work in conjunction are essential in their ability to influence the reader of the article. Through his rhetorical strategies, he effectively brings this easily overlooked issue into the public eye. Although no direct plan of action is given by Schliefer, his use of rhetoric instills a call to action, and paves the way for the necessary actions and public interest for action to be taken.  Whether action is taken next week or in ten years, public knowledge and understanding is the first step.
