Abstract

The question of whether more aggressive approaches to the enforcement of cybersecurity standards can survive in a time where sharing threat information is crucial to protecting privacy has been ongoing for some time. This paper argues that this is not an either-or proposition and that enforcement frameworks like New York’s DFS Cybersecurity Regulations and information sharing frameworks such as CISA can exist in harmony, and that their divergent approaches actually strengthen American cybersecurity law as a whole.
