Live from DC: Growing Challenges in Cyber Security

As of 2020, at least a third of all data passes through the cloud, and within five years, there will be over 50 billion smart connected devices in the world. 5G and increased bandwidth will enable machines, robots, and autonomous vehicles to collect and transfer more data than ever, leading to advances in the area of the Internet of Things (IoT) and smart machinery. The recent Russian cyber attacks through SolarWinds serves notice that with these technological advances come great concerns regarding data privacy, data security, and how cyberspace should be governed.

The Center for Careers and Internships and Middlebury in DC, in collaboration with the Rohatyn Center for Global Affairs and the Cyber Collaborative bring you a discussion among professionals who have a variety of vantage points on the cyberspace challenges.
