SECURING THE ALLIANCE
The digital revolution is changing the very nature of warfare. Cyberattacks present grave and complex dangers to everything from global energy grids to fundamental democratic processes. How can NATO, a 70-year-old organization and a bedrock of security for North America and Europe, keep pace with these hybrid threats? And what role does the U.S., a founding member of NATO, have in building trust, preventing conflict, and securing the alliance?

Ft. Detrick Scientist Bruce E. Ivins is deceased. The FBI suspects Ivins was involved in the anthrax attacks. Previously the FBI suspected Stephen Hatfill but he is no longer a suspect and has been awarded 5 million dollars.
Pictured in the photo are Bruce Ivins (deceased), Colin Powell and Philip Zelikow as well as a letter which the anthrax killer(s) sent.. Powell and Zelikow are not suspects. Powell used a vial of anthrax as a prop to push for invasion of Iraq.
The Bojinka Response Error solidified when Zelikow in 1998 repeatedly championed the least likely catastrophic threat of nuclear, biological, chemical, and cyberattack weapons - while failing to say a word about the most likely catastrophic threats to civil aviation.
His work resulted in the Kennedy School of Government's report on Catastrophic Terrorism published in 1998 by the journal Foreign Affairs. Jamie Gorelick (2nd highest position at the Justice Department) and Condoleeza Rice were among those influenced by his work. This led to a bending moment in our national security policy followed by a progressive collapse as fictional threats and imaginary causes gained ground over real-world intelligence.
Almost 3,000 people were killed at the WTC from two hijacked planes taking off from Logan Airport. Two other planes were hijacked from Dulles and Newark airport, one hitting the Pentagon, the other crashing in Shanksville, Pennsylvania. The hijackers were middle eastern terrorists who trained in Afghanistan and were followers of Bin Ladin. The plot was the second multiple airliner plot by Khalid Sheik Mohammed after the failed Bojinka plot was foiled in January 1995. The FBI does not believe Middle Easterners conducted the anthrax attacks.
A cyber security incident at Des Moines Public Schools caused a disruption to the school week (and work week). As the diagnostic and forensic work continues around the clock, I documented a little of the behind-the-scenes effort underway on a Saturday morning.
Test your own reaction -or compete against your friends- to an earthquake or cyberattack in our gaming room.
The recent NHS hack highlights just one of the new challenges government faces as it enters the digital age. Digital public services need to be easy to use, secure and save money. But someone needs to be responsible for setting and enforcing standards, driving the improvement of services and safeguarding against cyberattacks. So, who is it?
To discuss this issue, our panel included:
Ciaran Martin, CEO, National Cyber Security Centre
Janet Hughes, Digital Leadership Director, Doteveryone
Bryan Glick, Editor in Chief, Computer Weekly
Daniel Thornton, Programme Director at the Institute, Chaired the discussion and presented new research.

Summit participants unwind at the Gala Dinner after two days of exchanges during the International Transport Forum's 2025 Summit in Leipzig, Germany on 22 May 2025.
I had some plumbing done recently.... note the delicacy and vagueness of that phrase. I had to take responsibility, but I didn't want to watch or know the details. "Just fix it, please!"
That's how so many of us feel about health care: Don't bore (or frighten) me with the details, but deal with it. I know those pipesare there, but I don't want to mess with them.
This is not my plumbing, for the record. It's the underside of a sink at the Doubletree Hotel in Bloomington, IL, where I am about to give a talk about our relationship with information, for the State Farm insurance company. Insurance is based on lack of knowledge: If you know everything, it's no longer insurance, but cost-allocation, whether over time or over a population. Who should pay the cost of one person's indulgence in unsafe habits? Should a person with a specific genetic risk of diabetes or heart problems pay more to eat a hamburger than someone at low risk? Who should pay for a cyberattack launched by innocent attackers whose machines have been infected bysome remote hacker? and so on..
