Analyzing Cyberspace Solarium Commission's Blueprint for a Cybersecure Nation
2020-03-18 16:45

The Cyberspace Solarium Commission is a modern iteration of Eisenhower's original 1953 Project Solarium.

"Technological change is outpacing the U.S. government's ability to adapt," notes the CSC. As Tom Gann, chief public policy officer at McAfee comments, "Cybersecurity is everyone's responsibility. No one industry, sector, government or individual can adequately address the cyber challenges we face from nation-state actors and other adversaries. The Solarium Commission rightly notes that turning the tide on cyber threats must involve federal, state, local and tribal governments as well as industry, academia and individuals."

"The report's detailed cyber strategy intends to reform how the government is currently organized to manage security threats," comments Scott Russ, security architect at Nerdery.

The great achievement of the Cyberspace Solarium Commission report is its attempt to combine both government and private industry in a wide-ranging project to improve the cybersecurity of the whole nation.

"We are in the midst of a cyber insurgence in American cyberspace and the need for proactive public policy is a patriotic imperative."
