Researching Solutions to Meet Nevada's Cybersecurity Challenge
Cyberspace is a dangerous place, and none of the regulatory or market-driven attempts to improve security over the past twenty years have made matters better. Thus cybersecurity remains a "grand challenge," one that calls not just for technical solutions, but requires the skillful blending of business, engineering, scientific, sociopolitical, and strategic expertise.
