Can the U.S. and Europe Unite Against Cyber Threats? | GNSI Video Series

In this episode of the “GNSI Video Series,” GNSI’s Dr. Tad Schnaufer is joined by Joshua Bergen, the founder of the Alliance for Global Security (AGS) and security leader director of the Warsaw Security Forum, and James Jacobs, the director of policy and partnerships for Cyber Florida. The three give a recap of September 2025’s session of the Warsaw Security Forum and discuss major takeaways from the Forum.
Some of these major takeaways are the necessity of creating cross-ocean relationships between members of European parliaments and the American Congress, promoting education about cyber security and the possible critical infrastructure effects of a major cyber-attack, and bringing a range of policymakers together to home in on conflict prevention.
The increasing interconnectedness of the world through technology has influenced the way transatlantic and global relations and policymaking are changing. The cyber-realm now plays a large role in national security and critical infrastructure. Creating cross-ocean connections, from members of Parliament to members of Congress, and vice versa, are necessary to keep lawmakers aware of developing situations from Europe to the Indo-Pacific region.
