On Tuesday, Feb. 15, the Strauss Center, Clements Center and the Intelligence Studies Project are pleased to welcome Amy Zegart, senior fellow at the Hoover Institution, for a virtual talk on her newly released book, Spies, Lies, and Algorithms: The History and Future of American Intelligence. Steve Slick, director of the Intelligence Studies Project, will moderate the discussion.

On Thursday, Feb. 3, the Strauss Center is pleased to welcome Keren Elazari for a virtual talk on "Hacker Culture Around the World" as part of Strauss's speaker series, "Tales from the Cybersecurity Front," which is aimed at sharing stories from the cyber world. If you've only learned about hacker culture from movies, you've missed the best parts. Not only is it a rich tapestry that has evolved over the decades, but it is different around the world, especially as it pertains to the relationship between hackers and a national government (tolerated, supported, tight partnership, etc.). Global hacker and speaker Keren Elazari and Strauss Senior Cybersecurity Fellow Wendy Nather will talk about this evolution from the '70s and '80s through the '90s and how it works today, as well as the implications for cybersecurity policy.
