In a commentary for Lawfare, Jim Dempsey, a lecturer at the UC Berkeley Law School and a senior policy advisor at the Stanford Cyber Policy Center, discusses the Biden administration’s new National Cybersecurity Strategy, which calls for software developers to be held liable for the security of their products. “For decades, scholars and litigators have been talking about imposing legal liability on the makers of insecure software. But the objections of manufacturers were too strong, concerns about impeding innovation were too great, and the conceptual difficulties of the issue were just too complex,” Dempsey says. “With this new strategy, the administration proposes changing that.”
