The security threats facing the United States and its allies are complex and multidimensional, as are are the tools used to address them. On March 15, 2023, Aspen Digital hosted a discussion of the “all-tools” approach to disrupting digital threats, and in particular how the U.S. government uses investment strategy, trade policy, prosecutions, and export controls to tackle threats to national security.
We were joined by:

  • Assistant Secretary Matt Axelrod, Department of Commerce
  • Assistant Secretary Paul Rosen, Department of the Treasury
  • Deputy Assistant Director Cynthia Kaiser, Cyber Division, FBI
  • Moderated by John Carlin, Former Acting Deputy U.S. Attorney General
