Vorndran said the government estimates it has data on only 20% to 25% of domestic cyber breaches, a data set too small to be very useful, especially when trying to anticipate what adversaries will do next. Joining him in urging more cooperation from the private sector is Eric Goldstein, the executive assistant director for cybersecurity at the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, or CISA.
“The best thing we can do as the U.S. government to help resolve hesitation is by showing value, is by showing organizations that by engaging with CISA, engaging with the FBI, they will get information, expertise, support, the ability to collaborate seamlessly across sectors, that can help them to protect their enterprise and help them to protect their customers,” said Goldstein, who also participated in the Bloomberg panel.
