AI Cyber Lunch: Nazli Choucri on "Toward Securing the Long Chain of Global Communication Infrastructure"

Harvard Faculty, Fellows, Staff, and Students

Well over 95% of today's Internet communication is transmitted through undersea cables, submerged networks that most of us take for granted. But how secure are these flows?

Join the Science, Technology, and Public Policy Program for an AI Cyber Lunch Seminar featuring Nazli Choucri, Professor of Political Science at MIT. In a talk entitled, "Toward Securing the Long Chain of Global Communication Infrastructure," Choucri will discuss flows, choke points, and interesting patterns that emerge in the global communication infrastructure.

Q&A to follow. Buffet-style lunch will be served.
