The Biden-Harris administration today released its national cybersecurity strategy that focuses on shifting the burden of defending the country's cyberspace towards software vendors and service providers. Washington's new cybersecurity defense plan also acknowledges the collaboration between public and private sectors and with international allies and partners as essential for securing the nation against cyber threats."We must rebalance the responsibility to defend cyberspace by shifting the burden for cybersecurity away from individuals, small businesses, and local governments, and onto the organizations that are most capable and best-positioned to reduce risks for all of us," the White House said today."The Federal Government will also deepen operational and strategic collaboration with software, hardware, and managed service providers with the capability to reshape the cyber landscape in favor of greater security and resilience."

The Biden-Harris administration today released its national cybersecurity strategy that focuses on shifting the burden of defending the country's cyberspace towards software vendors and service providers.

lol, that is Jen's plan. The director of CISA. That strategy does not compel anyone to comply as it is not regulation. If they try to force the software industry and digital service providers to comply then those parties willl fight through lobbying and the courts.

The strategy goes like this... and I'll use existing government efforts for the first two examples:

"Let's make gun manufacturers responsible and liable for peoples' criminal use of their products."
"Let's make opiate drug manufacturers responsible and liable for the actions of addicts who abuse their products."
"Let's make software publishers and service providers responsible and liable for when people click on a link, download malware and infect their systems."

In other words funneling money to those organizations that contributed to their election campaigns.

Isn't that the American way?
