Can America 'stay ahead and catch up' in the world of increasing cybersecurity threats, or will the red tape be our demise? Brian Gallagher is the CEO and Co-Founder of CodeLock, where he pioneers technologies emerging in the intersection of physical security and cybersecurity. Most of today's industry and government-run on software, making both the average citizen and our country's infrastructure susceptible to major security threats. Due to the hurdles of America's policies and legislative process, we are seeing a lack of funding in the sectors that would help drive innovation and security advancements at a governmental level. While the government relies on entrepreneurs and industry elites to set the benchmark for innovation and push for policy mandates, getting policies implemented is a precarious trial. The threat of security attacks in the digital age is increasing exponentially every year, can we find the balance between morality, rules and strategy?
