Microsoft, Apple, IBM and other tech companies announced new efforts to improve the nation's cybersecurity Wednesday.
President Joe Biden on Wednesday urged top CEOs from the tech sector and other industries to do more to improve cybersecurity, as he hosted a meeting with them at the White House on the issue.
“I’ve invited you all here today because you have the power and the capacity and the responsibility, I believe, to raise the bar on cybersecurity. And so, ultimately, we’ve got a lot of work to do.” Washington is trying to respond to an ongoing barrage of cyberattacks. This year has brought high-profile incidents such as the Colonial Pipeline ransomware attack that led to gasoline RBU21, -0.09% shortages in the Southeast, and the massive SolarWinds SWI, -0.45% hack that affected the networks of multiple government agencies and corporations.
