Deputy undersecretary Mark Weatherford defends DHS’s ability to take a leading role in cybersecurity. Weatherford: “We are more mature now. We have the chops to do this, and we are proving it on a daily basis” Weatherford has been recruiting some of the top cybersecurity talent from other parts of the federal government to strengthen DHS’s IT security abilities. McCain, R-Ariz., is a leading critic in Congress on giving DHS more sway over coordinating cybersecurity among civilian agencies and the private sector.”]
