Cybersecurity Explained with Duncan Hollis and Heli Tiirmaa-Klaar
Manage episode 246735219 series 2443673
On this week’s episode of The Global Cable, we take a deep dive into cybersecurity with two experts in the field – Duncan Hollis, Professor of Law at Temple University and a Perry World House Visiting Fellow, and Heli Tiirmaa-Klaar, Estonia’s first ever Ambassador for Cybersecurity.
Professor Hollis’ scholarship engages with issues of international law and cybersecurity. Before joining Temple, he worked at the State Department, where he was the attorney-adviser for treaty affairs, working on the negotiation, conclusion, and implementation of U.S. treaties, and legal counsel for the Department’s Bureau of Oceans, International Environmental and Scientific Affairs.
Ambassador Tiirmaa-Klaar was named her country’s first ever Ambassador-at-Large for Cybersecurity in 2018. As the victim of one of the first major cyberattacks in 2007, Estonia has pioneered cybersecurity policy at the international level. Tiirmaa-Klaar was Estonia’s National Cyber Coordinator from 2007 to 2010, where she developed the world’s first whole-of-government cybersecurity. She later worked in cybersecurity strategy for NATO, and the European External Action Service.
On The Global Cable, they talk about how cybersecurity has changed in the last twenty years; why the Estonia attack in 2007 was the forerunner of modern hybrid warfare; the role for private sector companies in cybersecurity; and more.
