On Tuesday, December 15th General Michael Hayden (U.S. Air Force, Retired), the only American to head both the National Security Agency and the Central Intelligence Agency, joined Hudson Senior Fellow Arthur Herman for a conversation on the gathering cyber security storm.
The December luncheon featured a frank discussion with the man who was responsible for overseeing the collection of intelligence about the plans, intentions, and capabilities of America’s adversaries, and the conduct of covert operations to thwart terrorists and other enemies of the U.S.
Hayden, well-known from frequent appearances on Sunday-morning television news shows and a leading expert on cyber security, offered candid insight into the growing number of dangerous international crises in the final year of the Obama administration.
Hudson Institute Senior Fellow Arthur Herman, the Pulitzer Prize-finalist historian and author of the highly acclaimed best-seller Freedom’s Forge: How American Business Produced Victory in World War II, moderated the discussion.
This luncheon marked the fifth event in Hudson’s fall 2015 New York Discussion Series.
Join Senior Fellow Dr. Rebeccah Heinrichs and Senator Rick Scott (R-FL) for a fireside discussion on how Congress can guide American strategy, the need to modernize the defense industrial base, and the vital role of allies and partners in an unstable international environment.
Join Hudson Institute Senior Fellow Robert McDowell for a discussion of the book and communications law with the authors, Harold Furchtgott-Roth, Kirk Arner, and Arielle Roth.
Please join Congressman Jimmy Panetta (D-CA) and Senior Fellow Ken Moriyasu for a discussion on Central Asia’s economic and strategic significance and why updating US trade policy is key to unlocking the region’s potential in an era of renewed great power competition.
