approach to cybersecurity readiness. Dr. Chester spoke at length about a
proactive approach to information security management anchored on strategic
planning, senior leadership commitment, strong teamwork, sophisticated
intelligence monitoring, and robust training and testing practices. His
candor and reflection made for a most interesting conversation.
