CIS Cybersecurity Series (Part 16) – Nitin Pai
“There is always a tension between the public interest and the individual's interest. Most republics function on this principle; they take a part of your freedom or liberty away in order to guarantee you the rest of your liberties and freedoms. So, I don’t think this inherent tension would be any different when it comes to cyberspace.”
Centre for Internet and Society presents its sixteenth installment of the CIS Cybersecurity Series.
The CIS Cybersecurity Series seeks to address hotly debated aspects of cybersecurity and hopes to encourage wider public discourse around the topic.
