“Cybersecurity is on the minds of the Davos-ians because it could cost them money. Apparently they have just learned that ‘there is barely a large company out there today which has not had its infrastructure and systems breached.’ They have also realized that this is going to require some sort of collective action–and the private sector does not do collective action well. Australia and the United Kingdom are actively forcing companies to work together. Last week the European Union proposed a law that would require tech companies to report server issues and security breaches to the government.”
