Law enforcers must be given more powers in cyber security - founder of Firmitas Cyber Solutions
15 September 2017

Law enforcers must be given more powers in cyber security, the founder and president of Firmitas Cyber Solutions, Rami Efrati, has said at the 14th Yalta European Strategy Annual Meeting organised by the Victor Pinchuk Foundation.

“I believe that law enforcement should get much more capabilities to monitor based on the law. That is why you need the law,” Efrati said.

“If you ask an Israeli whether privacy is more important than security, everyone will tell you that first let us make sure that we are safe against terrorism,” he added.

Gen. Keith Alexander, CEO and president of IronNet Cybersecurity, commander of the US Cyber Command (2010-2014) and director of the National Security Agency and the Central Security Service (2005-2014), shared this opinion.

“I would like to make sure that my grandchildren live in security and have privacy. I do not want them to be victims of an attack. I would tend towards security,” he concluded.

The online stream of the Yalta European Strategy (YES) 14th Annual Meeting will be available online at yes-ukraine.org as well as on the websites of our media partners, in both English and Ukrainian.
