The EastWest Institute's Global Vice President and cyberspace program chief Bruce McConnell speaks with Peter Altabef, EWI board member and chairman and CEO of Unisys Corporation. The two discuss the President’s National Security Telecommunications Advisory Committee (NSTAC) and the “Cybersecurity Moonshot” initiative, which is working to develop a robust set of recommendations for a broad plan for a safer, more resilient use of the Internet to deliver government and critical infrastructure services.

“We must take on cybersecurity with the same foresight, effort and intensity once reserved for national security,” Altabef argues. “Cybersecurity is national security.”
