Effective or Confusing: New Structures and Regulations in Cybersecurity

Over the course of the last two years, cybersecurity planning and thought leadership have picked up with a parallel increase in regulation, Congressional action, and government reorganization. The Cyberspace Solarium Commission recommended and got a National Cyber Director and incident reporting legislation through the hard work of the SASC, HASC, and HSGAC, but where do these changes leave us now? Is the National Cyber Director leading the federal government effort, or are government turf battles making leadership in cyber confusing? And what about incident reporting - how many new proposals have we seen, and which are the most critical to understand? Join us for a discussion of all of these issues and what the cybersecurity landscape might look like in a year or five years from now.
