On Friday, December 1st, Threat Intelligence Academy will host Charity
Wright, Principal Threat Intelligence Consultant at Recorded Future, in the
Advanced Cyber Threat Seminar with a lecture and debate on attribution vs.
narrative in combatting information operations.
About The Debate
We will discuss the challenges of attribution in influence operations
analysis, especially those campaigns on social media platforms. What
changes will we see in Influence Operations over the next 5 to 10 years?
What technologies might become obsolete? What new technological threats
will we face in the future that could impact influence operations and
audiences specifically? Should we continue analyzing IO the way we do
today? What can we do to prepare for and defend against future IO?
