== Launch Event! July 28 == | |||
As reports of cyber-attacks continue to increase and policymakers begin debating possible solutions and legislation, Mozilla has brought together more than 30 leading cybersecurity experts from a wide variety of backgrounds -- academia, civil liberties, government, security, and technology -- over the last 9 months, aiming to build consensus on cybersecurity policy priorities. Through a first-of-its-kind Delphi-inspired research process, Mozilla is releasing a report that aims to cut through rhetoric and broaden the current discussion from information sharing and CISA, to understanding the larger threat landscape. | |||
At an event Tuesday, Mozilla and research participants will give an overview of the Delphi process and findings, share the group’s recommendations, and comment on the ongoing cyber security debates, including information sharing. | |||
Tuesday, July 28 at 11 am | |||
Human Rights Center, lobby level conference room | |||
1640 Rhode Island Ave NW | |||
Speakers will include: | |||

More about the Delphi Cybersecurity Project: | |||
Delphi is a research process that aims to build consensus on complex issues through multiple steps that allow users to provide candid feedback by using pseudonyms instead of real names. Mozilla’s Cybersecurity Delphi Project is the first study to use the Delphi-inspired research process to tackle cybersecurity issues. | |||
The report, available on Tuesday, will list 36 specific policy solutions, such as: | |||
* After each data breach, work on what are the best practices and procedures that could help prevent this in the future; | |||
* Automate security and enable security by default; | |||
* Make it easier for a wider group of internet users to use encryption; | |||
* Develop and use alternative authentication methods beyond passwords; | |||
* Create more funding to keep free and open source software secure; and | |||
* Encourage government and NGOs to create labels or seals of approval for corporations and government services meeting certain security standards. | |||
