"Dave DeWalt, CEO of security firm Mandiant, a participant in 
Friday's summit, hopes that fear of privacy invasion won't get in the 
way of the work that needs to get done. He pointed to the way the way 
public backlash to government surveillance programs revealed by 
former NSA contractor Edward Snowden stymied previous efforts to

"This balance between privacy and security ebbs and flows and 
unfortunately that was a huge setback -- a setback to the tune of 
several years," he said.
