T. William & Patricia Ayers GTP - The Changing Battlescape: The Cyber Challenge
As conflicts increasingly move beyond land, sea, and air, a new battlefield has emerged — one made of code, networks, and invisible lines of attack. From power grids and hospitals to elections and military command systems, cyber operations now play a central role in how nations compete, coerce, and fight without ever firing a shot.
Join the World Affairs Council of New Hampshire, in partnership with the NH Chapter of the Fulbright Association, for a timely conversation with Eric Talbot Jensen of Brigham Young University, one of the world’s leading experts on cyber conflict and the law of armed conflict, as we explore how cyberwarfare is reshaping modern statecraft. In this moderated community discussion, Jensen will examine how governments and non-state actors use cyber tools to spy, disrupt, and influence adversaries, where the legal and ethical boundaries lie, and what happens when digital attacks begin to look more like acts of war.
Attend in person or online to gain a clearer understanding of how today’s most consequential battles may be happening quietly, behind screens — and what that means for global stability, security, and the future of conflict.
Doors open at 5:30 pm for a light reception and opportunity to connect with the local community.
