The tools for Cybersecurity are shifting from Protection and Detection toward Tolerance and Survivability.  As Malware numbers, attacks, cost, and fix timelines all explode,  it has become clear that advances in Cybersecurity technology have outpaced similar advances in People and current Processes. Should we move beyond isolated patch fixes and automated islands towards fail safe protection?   Can we align dependent circles...and what can we do till then?   Is this simply a technology discussion?  A presentation based on several decades of industry, telecom, and government perspectives will debate these issues.
