Whack-A-Mole No More: Time for Tech Giants to Secure Their Digital Beasts
Stop the digital Whack-A-Mole, says CISA’s Eric Goldstein, advocating for a shift in “Vulnerability Management Responsibility”. Goldstein calls on tech providers to focus on creating mole-free systems, putting the security onus on them. No more unfair cost transference to customers, especially smaller organizations. It’s time for tech providers to step up their game!
Hot Take:
How about we stop playing "Whack-A-Mole" with system vulnerabilities and instead ask the creators of these digital beasts to make them less "moles-in-the-first-place"? That's the gist of what Eric Goldstein, the cybersecurity bigwig at CISA, is suggesting. It's about time we shifted some of this heavy lifting from the organizations to the originators, the tech providers. After all, it's their creations running amok in our systems, isn't it?Already a member? Log in here
