SAN FRANCISCO \u2014 The Trump administration\u2019s two-week old cyber strategy that aims to promote more proactive, offensive actions while bolstering federal networks and critical infrastructure, is a significant shift that\u2019s already materializing in meaningful ways, a group of experts said Monday at the RSAC 2026 Conference.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Despite the federal government\u2019s absence from the industry\u2019s largest annual gathering, and the long-anticipated document\u2019s brevity, representatives from a major cybersecurity vendor, consulting, venture capital and law firm were quick to defend and evangelize the administration\u2019s strategic actions in cyberspace.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The freshly-released strategy puts the federal government on firm footing to move beyond deterrence and into action, said David Lashway, partner and global leader of cybersecurity and national security at Sidley Austin.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are going to take offensive and defensive action with the most powerful cyber capability that the world\u2019s ever seen, and hopefully will ever know,\u201d he said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

This doesn\u2019t mean, as some industry observers have suggested, that the Trump administration is pushing private companies to hack back.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The scale and whole of government response is the key difference between the latest federal cyber strategy and what administrations have called for over the past decade, Lashway said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Instead of relying on private lawyers to get a nationwide injunction and collaborate with dozens of governments for massive takedowns, or government agencies collaborating with private security companies on a limited basis, the strategy aims to mobilize \u201cthe massive infrastructure and capability of the United States in a more coordinated way,\u201d he added.\u00a0<\/p>\n

This strategic pivot won\u2019t achieve all of its objectives immediately, but it\u2019s already showing signs of impact, according to Lashway. \u201cIt\u2019s been different since they issued the strategy,\u201d he said. \u201cWe\u2019ve already noticed…<\/p>\n
