President-elect Joe Biden has begun to set expectations for how his administration will handle cybersecurity. Promising to impose substantial costs on cyber attackers, the incoming Biden administration reacted to the SolarWinds breach. In a statement released yesterday, President-elect Biden said he will make cybersecurity a top priority across every level of government. He says he will elevate cybersecurity as an imperative across the federal government, further strengthen partnerships with the private sector and expand federal investment in the infrastructure and people needed to defend against cyber attacks. Biden called the SolarWinds attack a matter of great concern and plans to deal with it from day one of his administration.
