Today’s Security Innovation Network (SINET) event drew 300 people to the standing-room-only main ballroom at the National Press Club in Washington, D.C.  CNN filmed the entire event, and we will keep all interested parties informed as to when the video of the three panel sessions will be available.

The content was very powerful, and many eyes were opened to the interconnected nature of the crisis in America’s innovation ecosystem and the negative implications for cybersecurity. As one questioner said, “when are you going to stop talking about the problem and start taking actions, and what are you going to do?”

The question was meant more constructively than it reads on paper, and the answer is, “hopefully, a lot, but we need influential change agents to volunteer to get involved with the SINET to get things done.”  Much more to follow…
