Okay . How we prevent the adversary from taking our stuff. We have a mix of commercial Sector Companies working with the government and a mix of government folks that are really focussed on Important Missions and are critical to our national security. In my opinion and given my experience, i think offense always wins. With that mind set, i want to take a look at what were doing today and how we can give you all some Lessons Learned and some front line knowledge act things you can take back to your organization and implement. This gets to the heart of the issue, though. Scaling. We all have lots of systems. We are certainly dealing with a scale of attack surface and were dealing with adversaries getting more and more advanced. Theyre more and more capable over the past five years. We certainly are scaling our budgets as well. You can see here were focussed on i. T. Modernization, spending 95 billion. We have cyber spending going up close to 10 billion. Is it actually working . And we also have a growing talent gap. With these things, i want to put the panelists on the spot early this morning and kick it off. Everybody in two to five sentences or less, what is one way youre scaling your security programs to address the growing threats in light of the Cyber Security talent problem . Okay. Ill go first. Theres twos a pelkts to this. Ill try to be within two to five sentences. The first aspect is how can we better leverage a. I. And ml to growth with the data coming at us. The second is how can i get on board the right Technical Skills that can help me with the mission . Being in government, i cannot match the salaries of industry, so i have to work some unique ways. I have to appeal to their sense of mission. Our mission is interesting. I have to appeal to their patriotism. We also have to look at other means to increase their pay. Were doing cyber retention incentive pay. We can bump their salaries up and we base it upon performance, certifications and the job youre in. Were looking at a new hiring management process, angie bailey is beginning to put that in place. That should help us create more automation in how we hire things. We have a robust Cyber Internship Program which we ran this summer for ten individuals. We kept them away from data entry and gave them cyber kinds of problems. You have to look at helping the team deal with the growth in data. You also have to make sure you have a team and face up to the unique problem government has in hiring. I would say that its much the same. Right . Were dedicated focus around artificial intelligence. I think part of that is also i would couple that with automation. What are the things we can do to take some of the tedious tasks off our instant Response Teams . I think thats been a big one. The other thing i would say is really trying to better couple our i. T. Modernization efforts with our security efforts. I would say that in both directions. We talk about how security isnt built in from the beginning. The flip side is true. When our security engineers are building something, they arent thinking about User Experience either. Thats not something theyve been tasked to do. So i think coupling those we find we have stronger solutions. Absolutely. I think one of the aspects that we really take a look at is how do we quantify the risk and how do we value the investments . Rather than looking at a particular a. I. Tool or product or specific supplied Chain Solution or crowd source penetration model, how can we better do the hard question of what was the value and Risk Reduction . A lot of our focus right now is lets have the hard conversations to put a number, to put a value on it so i can really look at the thousands of unsolicited emails i get every month from vendors to say which ones are giving us a return on investment. How do i look at replacing an infrastructure that is aging . How do i make sure i have the tools in the cloud . Cspan3 back live at the 10th annual billington Cyber Security summit.
