The importance of cyber security as a national concern and policy issue cannot be overestimated by business leaders. The U.S. Chamber of Commerce and the U.S. Department of Homeland Security seek to increase cyber security awareness and encourage cyber security investment by the private sector by explaining the importance of integrating cyber security into organizations’ enterprise risk management planning. The U.S. Chamber-DHS partnership allows leading experts from federal, state and local, and business sectors to bring cyber security practices to the wider business community.
