Cyber attackers have had the advantage for decades over defenders but we can and must change this with a more defensible cyberspace.
This talk describes the results of a recent task force to identify the top technologies, operational innovations and public policies which have delivered security at scale for the defense to catch up with attackers. All of these innovations have one thing in common: a dollar of defense buys far more than a dollar of offense. Now that we've recognized what has been most effective, the community has to repeat these successes at hyperscale, and the talk gives recommendations.
