The Challenge of Cybersecurity Today

The election of 2016, attacks on US and other government infrastructure, relentless circulation of misinformation in Europe and the ransomware epidemic have made the threat to cyber systems dramatically apparent. A leading architect of Israel’s cyber policies addresses an array of global threats and the steps needed to counter them.
