“With the active threats we have each day against our country’s critical infrastructure and resources like banking, healthcare, defense, utilities, and more, it’s now more important than ever to address the nine core security principles in any digital landscape. Technology isn’t going to slow down, and so we must adapt our systems and processes at every level to identify the security gaps and associated risks to better protect ourselves and our nation from current and future threats,” said West.
