Cybersecurity continues a shift from Tolerance and Survivability tools towards Moving Target Defenses, but is this shift sufficient to create true cybersecurity? As the number of malware attacks, cost and time-to-fix continue to escalate it is clear that cyber-attack advances outpace current Social Norms and policies. Increasing impacts on the U.S. and U.S. corporations underscore several Cybersecurity Myths. Cyber-defense strategy requires new Social Norms, similar to the European’s approach for the Plague, Slavery and Piracy for a global deterrence to today’s Malware, Botnets and Espionage. Should security move beyond compliance, monitoring and industry partnership-sharing of threat information? Can cyber policies address today’s challenges of misaligned incentives, information asymmetries and externalities? Is this simply a technology discussion?
