 drum\n   When: Friday\, Aug 9\, 14:00 - 14:45 PDT\n   Where: LVCC West/Flo
 or 2/W223-W224 - [1]Map\n\n   Description:\n\n   This presentation delves 
 into the geopolitical landscape of the United\n   States and beyond\, prov
 iding a critical examination of the evolving\n   societal attitudes toward
  democracy\, globalism\, and privacy. Through\n   the lens of psychologica
 l influence and cognitive security\, we explore\n   how cyber and economic
  warfare shape human behavior and\n   decision-making processes. By bringi
 ng awareness to the myriad forces\n   that drive individual choices—from
  mundane daily activities like\n   selecting breakfast to significant acti
 ons such as voting in\n   elections—we aim to elucidate the intricate we
 b of influence. This\n   includes an analysis of historical strategies emp
 loyed in influence\n   campaigns and a critical look at the technical and 
 non-technical\n   tactics used today. We highlight the economic underpinni
 ngs and\n   financial mechanisms that support these campaigns\, revealing 
 the\n   sophisticated interplay between economic warfare and psychological
 \n   manipulation. Through this exploration\, we seek to equip participant
 s\n   with a deeper understanding of the strategies behind modern influenc
 e\n   campaigns and their profound impact on both individual and collectiv
 e\n   decision-making within democratic societies.\n\n   Speakers:Hallie S
