JAKARTA - President Joe Biden plans to hold a meeting on Wednesday, August 25, to discuss how the company is improving cybersecurity after the recent wave of security breaches and ransomware attacks.
At the meeting, the US President invited Apple CEO Tim Cook, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella, and Amazon CEO Andy Jassy to attend. Other giants such as Google, IBM, JPMorgan Chase and energy company Southern Company have also been invited. Even Southern Company CEO Tom Fanning said he would also attend the meeting, in Washington DC.
While it's unclear what the president and any of the attendees will discuss, there's bound to be plenty to talk about about certain incidents like the massive Solarwinds hack, the Kaseya ransomware attack, or the closing of the Colonial Pipeline due to a cyberattack.
Apple, Microsoft, Google, Amazon, IBM, JPMorgan and Southern Company all declined to comment to Bloomberg about the material at the event. Even a Southern Company spokesman declined to comment to The Verge on the contents of the meeting. Other companies and the White House have not responded to requests for comment from The Verge.
If you look at the lack of these companies experiencing hacks, Biden may want to invite them to form an alliance of troops against hackers who are increasingly attacking inter infrastructure and data in the US.
