Microsoft's Brad Smith joined HuffPost Live at Davos on Saturday to discuss the importance of online security and privacy. "2015 needs to be a year for new solutions, and that's what we're proposing.

Smith said people need to feel comfortable about their online privacy, noting users won't put online data in a place they don't trust, just like they wouldn't deposit money at a bank they didn't find stable. "In some sense, we're the next generation of banks," Smith said. Smith said lawmakers in the U.S.
