Could Cyberattacks Bring Modern Economies to a Halt?

Text the ATB Team! We'd love to hear from you!

In this episode of At the Boundary, GNSI’s Strategy and Research Manager, Dr. Tad Schnaufer II, is joined by Dr. Louise Tumchewics, a professor at the Center for War Studies at the University of Southern Denmark. They discuss Tumchewics’ upcoming project with the Center that focuses on the nexus of cybersecurity, geopolitics, and supply chain resilience for average businesses in Denmark.

Tumchewics mentions the human aspect of cybersecurity, and how Denmark is working to educate its civil population on digital security. She mentions that a cyberattack to critical infrastructure, such as the 2017 Maersk shipping crisis, would be damaging to the Danish supply chain and the Danish people, who rely heavily on online services. She ends with a hopeful look to the future, where countries like Denmark could have effective plans in case of cyber or hybrid threats.

At the Boundary  from the Global and National Security Institute at the University of South Florida,  features global and national security issues we’ve found to be insightful, intriguing, fascinating, maybe controversial, but overall just worth talking about.

A "boundary" is a place, either literal or figurative, where two forces exist in close proximity to each other. Sometimes that boundary is in a state of harmony. More often than not, that boundary has a bit of chaos baked in. The Global and National Security Institute will live on the boundary of security policy and technology and that's where this podcast will focus.

The mission of GNSI is to provide actionable solutions to 21st-century security challenges for decision-makers at the local, state, national and global levels. We hope you enjoy At the Boundary.
