Ann Johnson, Corporate Vice President, Business Development, Security, Compliance, and Identity at Microsoft, speaks with Executive Vice President and Head of Mandiant Intelligence at FireEye, Sandra Joyce. With the U.S. election upon us, misinformation is at a fever pitch as bad actors aim to disrupt and erode confidence in our democratic system. Ann and Sandra discuss the relationship between attribution and accountability in these scenarios, the rise of ransomware as a national security issue, and how understanding the scale of the threat landscape can help organizations respond—swiftly and thoroughly—to a breach.
