Are you concerned about cybersecurity? You should be.
We read of Russian meddling in our last election. We hear about ransomware attacks bringing large and small organizations to a standstill. Meanwhile, countless denial-of-service attacks seek to interfere with our favorite social media apps and services.

Last week, I asked Richard Levick, chief executive of the Washington public relations firm Levick, Andres Franzetti, chief strategy officer of Risk Cooperative, a D.C.-based risk, strategy and insurance consultancy, and Brian Finch, a partner of the law firm Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman, to join me on What’s Working in Washington to discuss cyber threats. It was a very illuminating conversation.
