Analysis

  • A 4X Increase in Disinformation in Africa is Fundamentally Destabilizing

    A new report from the Africa Center for Strategic Studies found that “disinformation campaigns seeking to manipulate African information systems have surged nearly fourfold since 2022, triggering destabilizing and antidemocratic consequences.”  Find a summary and analysis of the report here. 

  • Are Chinese-Made Ship-to-Shore Cranes at U.S. Ports a Critical Infrastructure Vulnerability?

    The 2023 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA)  (made into law in December 2022) included some specific military-related cybersecurity provisions, including a required study of cybersecurity and national security threats posed by foreign-manufactured cranes at United States ports” to assess whether foreign manufactured cranes at United States ports pose cybersecurity or national security threats.” The study was…

  • The March 2024 OODA Network Monthly Meeting: The Global and Domestic Impacts of the Exponential Pace of Technological Change

    At the March 2024 OODA Network Member Meeting – which was held on Friday, March 15, 2024 –  Four categories were discussed as framing for the discussion:  The speed with which artificial intelligence changes are happening;  Geopolitical conflict and crisis issues;  Domestic issues that are at times being underreported; and the general march of technology…

  • Undersea Communications Cables and the Seabed Continue to Evolve as Threat Vectors and Contested Arenas

    Back in March 2023, we provided an analysis of  “Undersea Telecommunications Cables and the Seabed as Geopolitical Contested Arenas” which, at the time, we framed relative to a great power competition with China:  “Along with Africa and the Arctic, add the growing tensions between the U.S. and China about undersea cable deployment and seabed warfare to your geopolitical…

  • Swarm Intelligence and Network Swarms: Future Scenarios

    The concept of network swarms, particularly in the context of modern conflict and security, represents a fascinating and somewhat disorientating evolution in the dynamics of warfare and strategic operations.  The implications of swarm intelligence also extend beyond  these immediate scenarios in technology and defense. They challenge our traditional notions of intelligence, control, and organization, suggesting…

  • Wondering if we are living in a simulation? If we are it is probably based on NVIDIA

    We Are Living In A Simulation That Runs On NVIDIA Ok maybe that is totally tongue in cheek and maybe even a bit hyperbolic. If we are running in a simulation I have know idea what the base layer really runs on. But the power of NVIDIA’s new Blackwell platform, combined with everything else they…

  • The Interim Report of the U.S. National Security Commission on Emerging Biotechnology

    The U.S. National Security Commission on Emerging Biotechnology publicly released its first report in January of this year – with ideas and recommendations “they will be advancing throughout 2024…culminating in a comprehensive report to Congress in December 2024.”  Find a summary and analysis of the interim report here.  

  • For the Cybersecurity Community: A Call to Action for Memory-safe Strategies and “Better Diagnostics that Measure Cybersecurity Quality”

    In late February, “the National Cyber Director (ONCD) released a report calling on the technical community to proactively reduce the attack surface in cyberspace. ONCD makes the case that technology manufacturers can prevent entire classes of vulnerabilities from entering the digital ecosystem by adopting memory-safe programming languages. ONCD is also encouraging the research community to…

  • The Drone Swarm Architecture Will Transform U.S. Warfighting Capacity

    Lieutenant General (ret.) Clint Hinote, U.S. Air Force and Major General (ret.) Mick Ryan, Australian Army – Special Advisors to the Special Competitive Studies Project (SCSP) – have co-authored a paper on “Uncrewed systems—which are now undergoing a form of Cambrian Explosion in capability, quality, and quantity…these systems are disrupting how combatants are considering risk,…

  • Exponential Technology Stack Convergence: Generative AI-enabled Blockchain Networks

    Throughout 2024, we expect disproportionate disruption when the exponential tech stack starts to converge.   One of the most promising of these exponential technological intersections will be Generative AI-enabled Blockchain Networks – of which applications and use cases have started to emerge.
