National Cyber Director Harry Coker described White House priorities to strengthen internet routing and software memory safety, urging wider adoption of RPKI to secure BGP (targeting over 60% of federal advertised IP space) and advocating shifts from memory-unsafe languages (C/C++) to memory-safe languages (Go, Rust) to reduce common memory-related vulnerabilities, noting the U.S. currently lags Europe in RPKI adoption.
