Cybersecurity urgently needs attention from businesses and government, according to Cutter Consortium Senior Consultant Paul Clermont. He highlights how several colliding trends — complexity, AI, and inter-connectedness — are compounding long-standing risks. Clermont discusses the tactics necessary to address them but cautions that “compounding the difficulty of these tasks is the need to be able to execute algorithms and procedures in nanoseconds — a tall order that should inspire a bit of conservatism about how much functionality and connectivity we might want versus what we truly need.”
