Abstract
As technology advances businesses are being called upon to take an active role in helping protect national security. Businesses at the forefront of encryption and hacking technologies have the option to aid or subvert the intelligence community by sharing breakthrough technology in the interest of the public good; but is it in their best interest to do so? There will be a clash between the intelligence community and the private sector, but what we need to know is how that clash will play out and what paths forward will most positively and negatively affect the private sector.
