This event features a moderated discussion with Melissa Dalton, acting deputy under secretary of defense for policy at the Department of Defense and Courtney Kube, NBC News correspondent. This platform will offer a thought-provoking exploration of current challenges and strategic pivots in US homeland defense amid an evolving threat environment from both state and non-state actors. Cybersecurity, information operations, the vulnerabilities of our supply chains, and the ever-present danger of asymmetric warfare are just some of the critical issues that will be addressed.
