If you're a Cipher Brief reader then you already know that the world we're living in today is complicated. The war in Ukraine has fundamentally reshaped European security and many believe the outcome of the conflict will have global ramifications. The complicated US-China relationship is playing out along technological, economic and military fronts and, as many have stated, presents perhaps the most significant challenge ever to US & Western global dominance. The impact of Artificial Intelligence on national security issues is a topic of particular interest and when you consider the broader security challenges tied to emerging tech, digital transformation, traditional espionage, foreign malign influence and the hardened resolve of anti-western alliances, the world has truly never been more complicated.
We can think of no better person to set the stage for this year's conversations than @CIA Director William Burns, and we're very pleased to welcome Director Burns to Sea Island to kick off the 7th Cipher Brief Threat Conference.
Director Burns will take the stage along with Cipher Brief Publisher & CEO Suzanne Kelly for a fireside chat on Saturday, October 7. Want to see who else will be there, check out the latest list of speakers and follow along this week as we post new details on this year's agenda on the 2023 Threat Conference event page. www.tcbconference.com [LinkedIn] #TheCipherBrief
