That quote from Coleridge’s The Rime of the Ancient Mariner aptly describes the situation with cyber metrics: we are awash in data yet have trouble measuring cybersecurity, particularly at the national level. In this webinar, Michael Daniel (CTA), Jason Healey (Columbia University), Wade Baker (Cyentia), Chris Wysopal (Veracode), and Alex Pinto (Verizon) will discuss this long-standing problem and what we can do about it. The panel will examine what makes for good ecosystem metrics, which ones would be both informative and practical for a whole country, and how we could use them to inform decisions at the national level. We’ll also talk about what might be some good news for cyber defenders when you start looking at some the proposed metrics. While we may never be able to measure cybersecurity with precision, metrics can make our decision-making processes better.
