Government At the Edge Forcepoint Cybersecurity Leadership Summit

At this half-day digital summit, government agency leaders gained tools to align their cybersecurity priorities for the next 1, 5, and 10 years. What makes cybersecurity human-centric, agile, and sustainable? How can agencies turn their internal and external cybersecurity practices into methods that reflect these values? Attendees had the opportunity to learn how to take their cybersecurity plans and priorities from idea to reality. Attendees left with a better understanding of how to bolster their cybersecurity practices against insider and outsider threats, and how to position their agency or organization as a future cybersecurity leader.

9:30 AM	LikeWar: The Weaponization of Social Media and the New Threat Environment Just as the hacking of networks became a security issue, so too has the hacking of people on social networks, by driving ideas viral through a mix of likes, shares, and often lies. This activity has grown in scale and been used by both state and nonstate actors to attack targets that range from public elections to private citizens and industry. It has also now become an accompanying "infodemic" that magnified the loss of the Coronavirus pandemic. Best-selling author P.W. Singer's book LikeWar was named an Amazon and Foreign Affairs Book of the Year and briefed everywhere from the NSA to Congress. He will discuss the lessons of his book and what we have seen in the latest social media threats. Peter Warren Singer, Award Winning Author and Strategist, New America
