[AISWorld] Episode 42 -- Useful Technology Should Be Attack Agnostic

[Dave Chatterjee]

Dear Colleagues:

Greetings and Happy New Year!

In this episode, Patricia Muoio, Ph.D., Partner at SineWave Ventures and
Former Chief of Trusted Systems Research Group, National Security Agency
<https://www.linkedin.com/in/patricia-muoio-10037775/>, sheds light on the
cybersecurity technology landscape and emphasizes the need to develop
technologies that are attack agnostic. Some of the questions driving the
discussion include: a) what progress has been made in the development and
use of cybersecurity technologies? b) what does it mean to be attack
agnostic? c) when developing cybersecurity technologies, how near or far
are we from taking the burden off people trying to protect themselves from
different cyber attacks? and d) the ideal government and industry
partnership model to develop innovative solutions.

I hope you enjoy this episode of *The Cybersecurity Readiness Podcast
Series*.
