CAN'T HACK THIS By Dan Cook
SC Cyber links statewide cybersecurity efforts, builds on cyber research.
“Let’s face it: Cyberdefense is not glorious. Some of the most popular sites related to cyber are the ones that talk about offensive capabilities — about how exciting it is to hack into a system. It’s much easier to hack into a system than to secure all components of that system. Defense is boring. It’s tedious. Nobody rewards someone because their system deflected 10 million attacks — everybody remembers the one that actually succeeded.” - Csilla Farkas
