CyCon 2019
celebrities work as Information Operatives and decide which Information they would like to help assist in dissemination for governmental behavioral influence campaigns; this is around the world not just the U.S.
All “influencers” are contractors of the intelligence community; smoking gun.
The defence community is nearing a stage where it can precisely define information warfare but is yet to reach a consensus on how best to analyse it. The panel entitled ´Information Warfare: defining and analyzing´ will assess some of the emerging methodologies that researchers have been using to identify and analyse digital information operations, with a special focus on the applicability of Social Network Analysis (SNA) in the cyber arena.
Speakers and Topics:
– Social Network Analysis and the Disinformation Kill Chain by Renee DiResta, Mozilla Fellow, Media Misinformation and Trust
– Challenges and Opportunities to Counter Information Operations Through Social Network Analysis and Theory by Alicia Marie Bargar, Research Engineer, Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory
– Hostile Information Environment Analysis by MAJ Geoff Nicholls, Officer, The British Army
