🚀🌎 Exploring the future of national security at the intersection of space and cyberspace.

This week, Jack D. Gordon Institute convened leaders from government, industry, and academia for The Nexus of Space & Cyber Roundtable Discussion, where participants examined how the convergence of space and cyber is reshaping today’s security landscape. Discussions focused on the growing importance of data as a strategic asset, governance and deterrence, cyber resilience in space architectures, and the evolving challenges posed by competition below the threshold of armed conflict. The goal was to foster candid dialogue and develop practical insights that can help inform future policy, research, and operational planning.

As emerging technologies continue to transform the global security environment, conversations like these help prepare the next generation of leaders to address some of our nation’s most complex challenges.
