Tim Cook is making an appearance at the White House’s cybersecurity summit

The White House Summit on Cybersecurity and Consumer Protection will be occurring later this week and apparently Apple CEO Tim Cook will be one of the participants in the cybersecurity and privacy debate and will be discussing things of particular interest to both Apple and its customers. 

Apple’s chief executive will reportedly be among those speaking to participants at Friday’s White House Summit on Cybersecurity and Consumer Protection, an event designed to bring together representatives from all sides of the cybersecurity and privacy debate. At the summit, President Obama is widely expected to discuss his new cybersecurity “executive action” which will call for, among other things, increased cooperation between U.S. technology companies and the Department of Homeland Security’s National Cybersecurity and Communications Integration Center. Cook’s participation in the event was first noted by The Hill.
