Risk environment in #cyber "complex & getting more complex" @DHS_Policy Rob Silvers tells @BillingtonCyber
State of private-public partnership on #cybersecurity "strong but a lot more work needed" per @DHS_Policy

Says gvt needs to keep showing private sector the value of working w/it & that gvt response on #Log4J & w/#Russia-#Ukraine has made a strong case
.@DHS_Policy says you rarely see a private sector company get burned in #cyber by being transparent & working w/the gvt

Argues companies more likely to get hurt by not collaborating
"We're trending in the right direction" per @Yahoo's @seanzadig

@netflix CISO Vitaly Gudanets agrees but echoes Zadig's assertion that still needs to work on understanding critical sensitivities, needs of pvt sector companies
