Cyber Letters of Marque & Other Awesome Ideas

A Kitchen Sync Conversation with Jamil Jaffer

What is the state of cybersecurity? What are the key challenges of securing the U.S. homeland and what, if any role, do private companies play in this mission? What about enlisting private actors to conduct cyberwar — is that a necessary requirement or a very, very bad idea?

Jamil Jaffer, SVP Strategy, Partnerships, & Corporate Development at IronNet Cybersecurity

Jamil Jaffer has engaged these and related issues while working at the White House, the Department of Justice, the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, the academy, and the private sector. He joined me recently for an in-depth chat about cyber trends and I think you’ll find our conversation to be enlightening, challenging, and enjoyable.

Thanks for listening,

Klon
