| Description: |
The U.S. Department of Defense and the U.S.
Intelligence Community must preserve our nation¿s
competitive advantages in highly contested
environments; real-time flow of information,
reliable communications, and accurate data are
absolutely essential to our country¿s strategic
efforts.
Our warfighters must succeed where stable
communication links are sparse, bandwidth
constraints impede data flow, cyber threats loom
large, and the dissemination of misinformation
challenges every piece of information shared across
multiple domains. We must regularly ask ourselves¿
Where is high-value information stored? How
accessible is it to the warfighter? And most
importantly, can operations and mission readiness
endure when the warfighter is completely
disconnected from vital networks?
Join us as we delve into these questions. We will
explore the critical role of data in contested
environments, the challenge of ensuring data
integrity, and the challenge of maintaining
accessibility. We will examine these questions in
the context of great power competition, national
defense, and operational readiness. |
