Solving The Greatest Threats to CyberSecurity

In MK’s own words, the solution to the cybersecurity problem requires an all hands-on deck effort. The key players are the world’s leadership (governing, law abiding nations), the private sector, and technology. But what part does each have to play in securing our networked environments? MK’s extensive background with the federal government lends a firsthand, bird’s eye view into the various threats that exist and how entities in public and private sectors can best come together to reach international partnerships in order to combat both the horrible crimes we know exist, such as child pornography, hacking, phishing -- and new ones we have yet to experience. 

“There needs to be some greater level of regulation. I envision a time when the requirement to have been audited, maintain a certain level of insurance, and the utilization of baseline frameworks becomes the norm to do business in the global markets. We have the same level of government involvement in nearly every facet of life, from the vehicles we drive, to the airplanes we use to travel for personal and business reasons. The private sector has an important role to play in this solution. The first would be to participate in the process of developing the regulatory framework from which all partners will be operating.”
