Summary/Abstract |
In 2011, the White House and the Department of Defense released strategies for how the United States will approach cyberspace both from an offensive and defensive perspective. Cybersecurity has long been America's Achilles' heel where public and private networks are consistently exploited by criminals, hacktivists, and espionage actors stealing financial data, intellectual property, and sensitive information. The U.S. government has failed to instill an effective national-level cybersecurity apparatus. In order to better position itself defensively, the U.S. government needs to reposition its federal agencies to better capitalize on their capabilities and authorities to address this twenty-first century threat.
