The United States faces the most severe challenge in navigating a fractured and dangerous world than in decades. Beyond the existential threats of climate, disease and nuclear conflict, the regional crises are immediate and complex: Russia’s unprovoked invasion of Ukraine, China’s expansion and threats to regional stability, North Korea’s nuclear saber rattling, Iran’s nuclear and terrorism proliferation, global energy shortfalls, and more.

What has the United States learned about cyber security threats and how is it prepared to respond? How do we ensure the nation’s competitive ability in the 21st century? These are among the topics the former Director of the National Security Agency and Commander of U.S. Cyber Command, will address at a November 8, 2022 luncheon at Belmont University.

Admiral Rogers will lead a panel discussing cyber threats hosted by the Tennessee World Affairs Council and Belmont University’s Center for Global Citizenship at 1:30 p.m. CT, November 8, 2022. The panel will be moderated by Congressman Jim Cooper, who serves on the House Armed Services Committee and as Chair of the Subcommittee on Strategic Forces. The cyber threat panel will feature speakers representing industry, government and academia including: Ms. Casey Santos, CIO of Asurion; Mr. Paul Connelly, VP Information Protection and Security at HCA Healthcare, Dr. Brandon Prins, Political Science Department Head, University of Tennessee Knoxville; and Curtis Clan, Chief Information Security Officer, for the State of Tennessee.
