Anne Neuberger Proposes Public-Private Plan to Defend Critical Infrastructure Against AI-Speed Attacks
Start here
Anne Neuberger, an a16z general partner and former US Deputy National Security Advisor for Cyber and Emerging Threats, has proposed a public-private plan to defend critical infrastructure against AI-speed attacks, published in the Wall Street Journal and summarized by a16z. The plan focuses on five sectors — power, banking and payments, water, communications and hospitals — and on the few hundred operators and shared vendors whose failure would cascade nationally. Its goals include zero internet-exposed control systems, 72-hour manual-operation drills, and containment of critical vulnerabilities within a set time. It would be run by a CEO council accountable to the White House's Super Intelligence Force, with sector ISACs delivering AI-enabled scanning, fixes and monthly scorecards, plus legal protections for information sharing and liability.
