President Trump must address the ongoing threat from Chinese hackers who outpace American cyber defenses. The new administration should enhance cybersecurity across critical infrastructure by establishing robust standards through collaboration between the government, insurance providers, and technology firms. This includes the creation of Cybersecurity Information Centers for auditing. A new prioritization of national security is needed as cyber warfare becomes a daily reality for public and private sector defenders, and leveraging insurance industry data will aid in setting effective cybersecurity standards.
Chinese government-affiliated hackers continue to outmatch America's critical infrastructure cyber defenders through sabotage and espionage campaigns like Volt Typhoon and Salt Typhoon.
The U.S. government, insurance providers, critical infrastructure operators, and technology providers must collaboratively define and maintain data-based "good" standards for each sector.
A new national security prioritization schema is essential as America's public and private sector cyber warriors are battling nation-states in cyberspace every moment.
The insurance industry would leverage its experience with cyber incident data to help the government set minimum standards across sectors and functions within sectors.
