Dr. Sullivan breaks the piece down into 3 separate but synergistic categories that are reshaping today’s homeland security and national security domains.
Terrorism
Forget everything you thought you knew about terrorism. This isn’t a story of simple ideological divisions, but a complex web of actors spanning from white supremacists to Islamist jihadists, with shocking connections that blur traditional boundaries. From a New Year’s Day vehicle ramming in the French Quarter to explosive caches in Virginia, the threat landscape is more unpredictable and diverse than ever before. What hidden connections are lurking beneath the surface of these seemingly isolated incidents?
Cyber and Advanced Technology
Cybercrime has evolved from a nuisance to a strategic weapon. Criminal cartels are no longer just trafficking drugs—they’re trafficking data, using cryptocurrency, digital surveillance, and AI to wage a silent war. Imagine criminal networks that can simultaneously launch ransomware attacks, clone credit cards, and potentially disrupt critical infrastructure—all while using drones and generative AI as their new arsenal. Are we watching the birth of a new form of global warfare?
