The relationship between #deterrence and cooperation on #DefenceScience and #Technology is often implied but rarely explained. At best this is a missed opportunity; at worst, it's a vulnerability that courts misperception. #AUKUS

There are plausible reasons to defend Taiwan, but its military value is not one of them. China thinks threatening the US at range is a prerequisite for conquest of the island. Thus conquest of the island is not a prerequisite for threatening the US at range.
“Positioning significant, vulnerable U.S. forces near Taiwan in the name of deterrence risks too much military power for too little military gain,” argues @jcaverley.

#Taiwan "needs to ensure the foundations of its information strategy are laid well in advance of conflict." Great comparison and contrast with #Ukraine by Jason Vogt @m_poznansky and @NianaSavage #infrastructure #cyber

Every leader knows the vital role of cyber, but finding qualified personnel remains a challenge. This article sheds light on talent management in the military cyber community. (1/2)

To quote my boss, "it is the first time I ever heard 'that man took a beating while trying to write these 14 pages' said as a compliment!" Appreciate the shout out from Dr. Nina Kollars on the ChinaTalk podcast, “DoD Tech Strategy,” with @jordanschneider
