During one of the most hyped keynotes at the recent RSA conference, President Obama's "cyber-security czar" Melissa Hathaway outlined at a high level plans for improved security within the federal government.
In the latest episode of eIQcast, Host Ross Levanto and eIQnetworks Product Evangelist John Linkous analyze Hathaway's comments and the industry's reaction to them. The report Hathaway recently completed and sent to the President has not been made public; it's expected that many of her recommendations will emphasize the need for ongoing monitoring of networks and security controls, as well as the need for the White House to step up its management of IT security across the entire government.
Editor's note: This episode was recorded on Friday, May 1, and therefore references the RSA Conference that ended on April 23.
