Microsoft Calls for a Cybercrime Framework
The corporate vice president of Microsoft's (NASDAQ: MSFT) Trustworthy Computing group is aiming to map out a plan for how businesses, governments, and individuals need to look at and deal with international cybercrime.
Charney voiced his views and his concerns with cybersecurity's present shortcomings this week in a blog post, in a white paper, and in a presentation at the EastWest Institute's Worldwide Cybersecurity Summit in Dallas.
"Although many organizations have invested significantly in information assurance, it appears to many people that neither governments nor industry are well-positioned to respond to this highly complicated threat," Charney said in his post on the Microsoft On the Issues blog Monday. "As global connectivity has grown, so has the cyber threat."
