Who Makes Cyberspace Safe for Democracy?

On Demand Session Link

Digital connectivity increasingly extends into every part of our economy, infrastructure, and society, but our democracy is struggling to keep up. Americans face growing threats from cyberspace — but the networks that make up that cyberspace are almost entirely privately owned. Government and industry must figure out how to work better (and faster) with one another to defeat those threats, secure our democracy and our infrastructure for the 21st century, and continue to seize on the promise of our modern digital economy. The U.S. Cyberspace Solarium Commission has recommendations to make it happen — but Americans have no time to waste.
