Jen Easterly highlighted the need for a fundamental change in software development practices, attributing an epidemic of breaches to a software quality problem.
She emphasized the importance of considering vulnerabilities in software as alarming product defects and not as inevitable occurrences, urging for increased focus on security.
Easterly mentioned the initiation of a 'secure by design' pledge by CISA, with 200 companies already committing to enhancing product security through better development practices.
She advocated for potential software liability reform to hold companies accountable for security flaws, citing an instance where Delta's operation was affected by a cybersecurity vendor's faulty software update.
