Expanding America's cyber toolbox (with Mieke Eoyang)

Explain to Shane

Undeterred cyberattacks on American critical infrastructure have increased urgency for improved cyber practices. Heading into the next administration, what can the US do to better prevent cyberattacks and impose consequences on their perpetrators? How do we ensure effective information-sharing between government and industry to thwart future attacks and curtail their potential damage?

On this episode, Shane is joined by Mieke Eoyang, senior vice president of the DC think tank Third Way’s National Security Program and chair of its Cyber Enforcement Initiative. Mieke recently co-authored a piece for Lawfare called, “A Road Map for Tackling Cybercrime,” which outlines key cyber priorities and policy recommendations for the next administration. She also just launched a podcast titled, “To Catch A Hacker,” a true-crime podcast that chronicles how famous cyberattacks were solved. With inauguration approaching, Mieke “explains” how the Biden administration can move the US cybersecurity agenda forward.
