The issue of cybersecurity is a complex and multifaceted challenge that requires careful consideration. On one hand, it is essential to recognize that China’s cyber activities have raised legitimate concerns. The testimony by Jen Easterly, director of the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, sheds light on China’s strategic plan to infiltrate U.S. cyber infrastructure and induce societal panic through ransomware attacks. The Colonial Pipeline incident in 2021 serves as a stark example of the potential impact on everyday American life. However, it is crucial to maintain a balanced perspective. While vigilance is necessary, we must avoid painting an entire nation with a broad brush. Not all Chinese citizens or entities are involved in cyberattacks. Collaborative efforts between nations are essential to address these threats effectively. As we combat cyber threats, let’s focus on constructive dialogue, international cooperation, and robust defense mechanisms. Only through collective action can we safeguard our digital future and maintain stability in an interconnected world. #Disinformation #Propaganda #FakeNews #ElectionInterference #DomesticTerrorism #NationalSecurity #CriticalThinking #MediaLiteracy #PlatformGovernance #Transparency #FreeSpeech #Democracy #ElectionSecurity #Extremism #SocialMedia #Regulation #FactChecking #Misinformation #Radicalization #SocialCohesion #Cyberwarfare U.S. Department of State UK Research and Innovation Centre for Ethics, Safety and Security in Business European Commission NATO U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission #Censorship #FreedomOfSpeech #Counterterrorism #TechnologyEthics #ForeignInfluence #Polarization

...CONNECTING THE DOTS... I would like to thank the European Expert Network on Terrorism Issues (EENeT) team, as well as The Coordination Unit for Threat Analysis (CUTA/OCAD) of #Belgium, for the excellent organisation of the Annual EENeT conference in #Brussels...very interesting speeches and presentations! Special thanks to J* and her colleagues for the warm welcome on the roof over the city! It is always a great pleasure to meet long-term experts/friends, and discuss together the evolution of terrorist threats in #EU. I had the privilege of giving a presentation on "Mirages, Shadows, and Fogs: The Cyber-Social Weaponization of Generative Artificial Intelligence (#GenAI)". #AI #MUAI #security #cybersecurity #CyberSocialSecurity #NationalSecurity #PublicSecurity #PVE #CVE #terrorism #ViolenExtremism #radicalization #radicalisation #extremism #experts #democracy #crisis #propaganda #narratives #disinformation #ConspiracyTheories #FIMI #CW #CognitiveWarfare #posttruth #weaponisation #weaponization #OnlineHate #DeepFake #SyntheticMedia #proxy #RiskAssessment #ThreatAssessment #proxyverse

On March 20, the U.S. House of Representatives approved the Protecting Americans Data from Foreign Adversaries Act of 2024 by a unanimous vote of 414-0 to prevent companies from selling the American people’s data to rogue nations like China and North Korea. Days before, it passed legislation banning TikTok from the U.S. over concerns over foreign espionage and data mining. The Senate is currently considering both measures. These actions send a clear and concise message that Congress is taking America´s data privacy seriously. But like so many congressional initiatives, these piecemeal actions miss the mark and the point, leaving the nation vulnerable to further cyber-attacks. The U.S. Department of Justice recent indictment of seven Chinese nationals for hacking demonstrates the futility of this exercise. Experts believe the accused individuals remain in China – beyond the reach of the American justice system. The indictment makes for a good press release, but it does not change anything. The UMBRA suite of threat intelligence, data security, precrime surveillance, OSINT and predictive analytics is a legitimate game changer.
