The United States Department of Defense’s Irregular Warfare Center (IWC) and the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Intelligence and Security (OUSD(I&S) are partnering for the inaugural Intelligence Support to Irregular Warfare Symposium this fall. The event, to be held October 29-31, 2024, at the U.S. Naval Institute’s Jack C. Taylor Conference Center, Annapolis, Maryland, is the first in a series of symposiums that will look at our existing gray zone capabilities within the Intelligence Community with a focused examination of our adversaries from a global perspective. The goal of this event is to generate a common understanding of intelligence support to irregular warfare and how our adversaries leverage irregular activities across the operating environment. Only through understanding how our adversary operates and what the U.S. Government and its Allies bring to the conversation, can we identify opportunities to act, as well as detect, develop, deter, and disrupt adversarial irregular activities.

The Irregular Warfare Center (IWC) is excited to share its latest Perspectives article, “Neither Narrow nor Nice: Economic Warfare, Disinformation, and Civil Society,” by author James Sullivan. A better understanding of the limited efficacy of “narrow” and “nice” approaches should inform both offensive and defensive policies. Further study of the enabling nature of economic dislocation for disinformation should enable governments to build more robust defences. Check out the entire Perspectives article and other IWC publications below: https://lnkd.in/gat2536Q Sullivan serves as an External Associate on the Economic Conflict and Competition Research Group at the Defence Studies Department at King's College London, where he is also is a PhD candidate. #IWC #Irregularwarfarecenter #Irregularwarfare #IWCFAN #IWCPerspectives

Irregular Warfare Center (IWC) reposted this
I’m thrilled to announce a paper I developed for graduate school at Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies (SAIS) has been published by the DoD’s Irregular Warfare Center (IWC). It explores how cyber operations can be viewed as technical manifestations of broader information warfare strategies, along with the challenges of deterring these activities. I am grateful for the opportunity to contribute to this dialogue! If you're interested in reading the paper or learning about the mission of the IWC to respond to irregular warfare challenges, please find more information below:
After a rigorous selection process, the Irregular Warfare Center (IWC) is thrilled to announce the winner of our IW Student Working Group essay contest, Sam Paulson! Sam has more than 15 years of expertise in cybersecurity, collaborating with stakeholders from both government agencies and private sector organizations. He is currently pursuing an executive education master’s program at The Johns Hopkins University SAIS, focusing on emerging national security issues. His academic involvement includes leadership roles in SAIS's Technology and Defense-related student organizations. We congratulate Sam for his outstanding essay titled “Technical Means, Strategic Ends: Cyber Deterrence in the Context of Information Warfare Doctrines." Sam's work delved into the complex interplay between cyber operations and broader information warfare strategies, focusing on the doctrines employed by Russia and China. We’re thrilled to have Sam involved in our IW Student Working Group and are eager to see what other insights he brings. Check out Sam’s entire essay below: https://lnkd.in/ebgv3GyQ We enjoyed reading each and every essay submission and want to thank all of the participants for their hard work and contributions. The IW Student Working Group is filled with exceptional individuals at both the graduate and undergraduate levels. The IWC looks forward to engaging more with all the Student Working Group members.
