The Homeland Security Secretary aims to transform how the government defends against cyberthreats.
Sec. Alejandro Mayorkas unveiled early steps, like infrastructure investment and building partnerships with private companies, this week.
A historically complacent approach to cybersecurity is becoming proactive, said Dr. Dwight Farris, professor of cybersecurity and information technology at Grand Canyon University. The government’s move to improve online safety is needed to prevent a catastrophe.
“The number of breaches, the number of compromises are on the rise. And we need to do something substantial to combat that,” said Farris.
Homeland Security said it also plans to spend more money on cybersecurity experts needed to stop electronic onslaughts.
