Now available on-demand: Collaborative Cybersecurity: Balancing Systemic Responses and Market Competition https://lnkd.in/g-9uk4Zy Increased connectivity brings many benefits, from increasing a company’s customer base to providing citizen services more efficiently. However, this connectivity comes with a cost in the form of increased risk, whether due to malicious activity or accidents. This risk has both private and public components, and it is not distributed evenly across the digital ecosystem. As a result, managing cyber risks effectively have proven challenging for most societies. #Cybersecurity providers have a unique role to play in managing the resulting systemic risk, whether individually or through organizations like CTA. Join Cyber Threat Alliance President and CEO J. Michael Daniel, Derek Manky, VP Global Threat Intelligence, Fortinet; Matthew Olney Senior Director of Threat intelligence and Interdiction, Cisco Talos; David Beabout, Global CISO, NTT Security Holdings; and Samantha Madrid, Cybersecurity Executive, as they explore how the cybersecurity industry can work together to make changes at the systemic level, while maintaining competitive relationships crucial to a market economy.

Did you catch the Advancing Cyber podcast about evolving how we share information sharing with J. Michael Daniel and Sergio Caltagirone? If you haven't yet, get this one in your queue! Information sharing used to be about trusted exchanges with those who had data to trade. Today, that information comes from the multi-billion-dollar threat intelligence industry and the experts who hunt threat actors and cyber criminals. On this episode of Advancing Cyber, Cyber Threat Alliance President and CEO J. Michael Daniel and Professor and cyber threat intelligence expert Sergio Caltagirone explore how threat intelligence has matured into one of the fastest growing segments of our industry with customer expectations for timely and actionable data. They unpack how that reality contrasts with the post-9/11 paradigm of information sharing and the insatiable demand for information from government, critical infrastructure, and organizations around the world. This episode wrestles with the reality that not every critical infrastructure owner or operator may need the same level of threat intelligence or priority treatment, particularly in times of crisis. The team also debates what a new executive order for information sharing and threat intelligence should include – regulation, threat intelligence marketplaces, tactical and strategic scoping requirements, clear articulations of legal and privacy obligations, and other important priorities - highlighting that information sharing is still a hard problem to solve, but there are options and solutions that can help.
