The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) emphasizes that incorporating a Secure by Design framework is a foundational step towards a more resilient digital environment. Conference speaker Kirk Lawrence likens this initial enforcement to locking a front door, stressing that while it increases security, risks remain. Highlighting the necessity for executive buy-in, Lawrence indicated that organizations need to understand the business benefits to support the initiative. Additionally, he acknowledged the current weaknesses in threat detection, suggesting that these areas need attention as the framework develops further.
Incorporating a Secure by Design framework is just the start to engineering a threat-resilient digital environment, per officials helming the initiative at the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency.
Secure by Design is not the end of risk. It's the start of resilience.
One of the key principles that we've advocated since the beginning is that it's not going to happen unless you have executive buy-in.
Lawrence specified that threat detection and national coordination efforts are weak spots in the Secure by Design architecture, but it remains a good first step.
