At the Black Hat cybersecurity conference, Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas encouraged attendees to collaborate with the agency on defining cybersecurity policy. He invited them to “lead the charge on the inside,” by joining the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency and DHS, or at least to engage with them in establishing the balance of power in this new frontier. He also shared information about the upcoming Cyber Talent Management System, an initiative to help the agency “hire the very best cyber talent,” by redefining hiring requirements and pay rates.
