Nowadays, we have some significant cybersecurity scenarios to deal with at a national level. These challenges require top-level leadership and a response that must also be supported at a national level.

This is precisely what Chris Krebs, Director of the U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, is focused on, leading a team to identify the top threats we face and bringing the public/private sectors together to find a safe and secure path forward.

Besides building out an expanded CISA team, Director Krebs and CISA are hosting its 3rd Annual National Cybersecurity Summit. As part of our coverage of the event, Sean Martin connected with the opening-keynote speaker—and one of the newest CISA team members—Josh Corman, to get a view into the 4-week event.

As you can imagine, if you know Josh at all, the conversation—while rooted in the topics presented and discussed during the summit—took on a life of its own as we traverse some of the top challenges we face as a nation. Many items require our full attention: protecting lives in the tech-driven healthcare industry, educating policy-makers on what it means to be cyber secure, making cybersecurity threat and protection information actionable in every business and in every sector, and to ensure a trustworthy election process for every American.

The summit has a great line-up of speakers, and the topics are incredibly relevant and timely. 

Have a listen to this episode to get a glimpse of what you can experience during the summit and get a view into the CISA team's priorities.
