The article “Social Cybersecurity: An Emerging National Security Requirement” by Lt. Col. David M. Beskow and Kathleen M. Carley discusses the growing importance of social media platforms in national security. The authors highlight how cyber threats extend beyond technical breaches to influence public opinion, behavior, and societal cohesion.

I found the focus on integrating social cybersecurity into broader defense strategies particularly insightful, as it emphasizes not only protecting systems but also understanding social dynamics. This approach seems essential for effectively addressing modern threats that blend technology with psychological manipulation.
