The US Information Technology Industry Council has urged the Trump administration to reduce regulations around cyber security. The council's report emphasizes the need for a coordinated approach to cyber security and collaboration between the public and private sectors. Key recommendations include prioritizing effective security outcomes, modernizing network architectures, and investing in secure systems. The report advocates for cutting red tape to allow defenders to concentrate on real threats and encourages the government to leverage AI technology in securing networks and critical infrastructure.
The administration's vision should translate into results-driven action. That means empowering defenders with what they need to win: efficiency, appropriate resourcing and the freedom to focus on real threats, not on navigating a web of regulatory regimes.
Cutting red tape, aligning requirements and streamlining cyber operations will free up government and private sector defenders alike to focus on stopping real threats. Efficiency is not just good governance - it is national security.
There is a need to prioritise impactful security outcomes, slash red tape, rethink legacy network architectures, invest in secure modern systems and strengthen trusted partnerships between the public and private sectors.
The US government must respond with speed and strength in using AI to secure networks and critical infrastructure, and empower frontline cyber defenders.
