Unexpected hurdles creating U.S. cyber policies

The early days of U.S. cyber policy were defined by agencies that had no common language and no playbook to follow.

J. Michael Daniel, President and CEO of Cyber Threat Alliance and former White House cybersecurity coordinator, talks through what it actually took to coordinate cyber policy across the federal government, build public-private partnerships that work, and stand up an intelligence sharing organization that serves the entire cybersecurity industry.

The full conversation includes:

• Why public-private partnership in cybersecurity is harder to operationalize than most people assume
• What business leaders consistently get wrong about cyber risk
• How threat intelligence sharing actually works inside the Cyber Threat Alliance
• Why all of the industry's accumulated tech debt may be coming due
