Join the UC Berkeley Center for Long-Term Cybersecurity for an exciting webinar featuring Citizen Lab researchers Noura Aljizawi, Gözde Böcü, and Nicola Lawford who will present their report, “Enhancing Cybersecurity Resilience for Transnational Dissidents.”
The report examines the cybersecurity challenges faced by grassroots transnational advocacy groups in the United States that are targeted by authoritarian regimes. These organizations play a crucial role in supporting vulnerable populations like asylum seekers and refugees, but often lack the resources to protect themselves from cyberattacks. This webinar will explore the specific threats these groups encounter, with a focus on exiled women dissidents who navigate issues of gender, politics, and digital repression.
Moderated by Ron Deibert, Director of Citizen Lab, the discussion will cover key findings on the cybersecurity threat landscape, strategies for safeguarding networks, and areas for action and improvement to enhance the cybersecurity of transnational activists in the U.S.
