What can agencies and industry do to more accurately and efficiently manage risk and increase cyber resilience? In the words of our Nation’s risk advisor, Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, “Defend today, secure tomorrow.”
Jeanette Manfra, Assistant Director for Cybersecurity for the Department of Homeland Security's Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency
Former FBI cybersecurity expert and Vice President, Office of Cybersecurity and Trust at BlackBerry Cylance John McClurg emphasizes the need to move past a detection-based model to a mathematically predictive model.
Emerging technologies are requiring information security experts to fundamentally rethink how they approach security. As more government agencies shift their data to the cloud, they must also move from a perimeter security model to one that balances security with access. Similarly, with faster-moving threats and a growing number of networked devices, agencies seek to use continuous diagnostics and monitoring tools to protect their assets.
