Following our request for further information, it became clear that DHS’ conclusions were wrong.” “DHS confirmed that Russian scanning activity had actually occurred on the California Department of Technology statewide network, not any Secretary of State website. Based on this additional information, California voters can further rest assured that the California Secretary of State elections infrastructure and websites were not hacked or breached by Russian cyber actors.” “Our notification from DHS last Friday was not only a year late, it also turned out to be bad information. To make matters worse, the Associated Press similarly reported that DHS has reversed itself and 'now says Russia didn’t target Wisconsin’s voter registration system,' which is contrary to previous briefings.” epic.org EPIC-17-03-31-DHS-FOIA-20180416-Production-1 000001 NPPD 000650 “The work of our intelligence agencies is critical in defending against cyber threats.

The intervention occurred after the United States Department of Agriculture received information that an on board container of Argentine lemons carried a "harmful biological substance." The ship was held at anchor for six days as officials tested containers and weighed options of how to best prevent the release of a hazardous substance. Although the information which triggered the government response later proved to be a hoax, the economic damage to particular businesses was quite real.

    Weekly Media Report – Apr. 27-May 3, 2021 Further reproduction or distribution is subject to original copyright restrictions. ……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………..…… COMMENTARY: 1. Into the Gray: Priorities for the Next SecNav (USNI Apr 21) … Honorable Thomas B. Modley, former Acting Secretary of the Navy Every four years, the Pentagon experiences a dramatic leadership turnover, as civilian appointees resign to return to civilian life or move to more senior jobs for an administration’s second term. This places significant pressure on the new team in the Department of Defense (DoD) to form quickly to meet the persistent national security challenges. We must realize that the world broadly is getting more complex, and with it so is the national security environment that U.S. defense leaders must address—and de-risk. How this environment will evolve is unpredictable, but I contend we should expect a future in which the most aggressive of our global adversaries, namely, China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea will continue to push against U.S. influence and the global promotion of liberty, free commerce, and human rights to advance their interests and to fulfill their own national visions… Then, the Naval Community College, as well as the four academic institutions that make up the crux of the Department’s educational system—the Naval War College, Naval Postgraduate School, Marine Corps University, and U.S. Naval Academy—must be fully funded and incentivized to work more closely together in the development and delivery of their respective curricula. These curricula need to place a greater emphasis on history, geopolitics, and strategy, leadership and ethics, and the new realms of cyber and space-based security studies.
