Welcome to OTH’s fourth podcast! In this episode we took a look at the concept of cognitive warfare, an idea that is making its way into an increasing number of conversations on the emerging security environment. Sean is joined by Mike “Pako” Benitez and David “Sugar” Lyle who help us distinguish what cognitive warfare is and what it means for how we approach security competition in the future. As always, links to the material referenced along the way can be found below. Thank you, enjoy, and let us know how we’re doing and if you would like us to address a topic we haven’t hit yet.
