Information Warfare is defined as any action to deny, exploit, corrupt or destroy the enemy’s information and its functions and to protect yourself against those actions and exploiting our own military information functions. Brian Murphy will discuss cognitive disinformation, how an enemy might use it strategically to weaken an opponent and tactically to prepare the battlefield, and he will provide real-life examples of how it is being used geopolitically around the world today.
