Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano advises Americans on cybersecurity

The Secretary explained Federal cybersecurity duties in a web-only presentation for National Cybersecurity Awareness Month.

October is National Cybersecurity Awareness Month, and Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano explained Federal duties in that realm in a presentation yesterday that was only presented on the web. Dr. Steven Bucci, former Deputy Assistant Secretary for Homeland Defense at the Department of Defense and now IBM’s Issue Lead for Cyber Security, offered his opinion in a piece called “Homeland Security Secretary Napolitano Hits a Home Run“. He joined me after we listened to the Secretary’s speech.
