Collaboration appeared to be the best defense to cyberattacks on private enterprises at the Chief Information Security Officer and Chief Legal Officer (CISO/CLO) Summit on Monday, entitled "Defending the Enterprise." The CISO/CLO Summit, held at Rosen Shingle Creek, Orlando, Fla., coincided with the Computer and Enterprise Investigations Conference (CEIC) and featured a number of sessions aimed at developing strategies to defend enterprises from cyberattacks and data breaches.

Attendees of the summit, sponsored by Guidance Software Inc. and FireEye Inc., got the opportunity to engage retired four-star General Michael Hayden, former director of the National Security Agency and Central Intelligence Agency, in a question-and-answer session prior to his CEIC keynote address on emerging global cyberattack hotspots. Hayden, now principal at the Chertoff Group, responded to a number of questions on strategies to thwart cyberattacks that focused on collaboration and private enterprise.
