Homeland Security's role in cybersecurity

09.12.2015
CSO Contributing Writer Ira Winkler (The Irari Report) recently sat down for an interview with Alejandro N. Mayorkas, the deputy secretary of Homeland Security.

We’ve separated the interview into three video segments, covering a variety of security-related topics.

In the first video (above), Mayorkas describes the role of Homeland Security when it comes to cybersecurity, and how government agencies are working together to improve the overall cybersecurity of critical systems and infrastructure.

In part 2, Winkler and Mayorkas discuss whether the power grid is vulnerable to cyberattack, and where opportunities exist for improving our defenses.

 

In Part 3, Mayorkas and Winkler discuss the role of regulation in cybersecurity and how companies can better improve their own cybersecurity.
