What do you need to know about Russian hackers and Chinese spies? How do they operate, and what threat do they pose? In this gripping lecture, Huib Modderkolk takes you to the front line of digital warfare. In The Digital Trenches, Modderkolk shows step by step how the Russians go about infiltrating critical infrastructure and undermining democracy. How they plan influence operations and secretly steal information. But also how the Dutch security services fight back and are by no means powerless—and where Russian actions succeed, but also frequently fall short.
While much attention is focused on an aggressive Russia, China is meanwhile playing a smarter and more subtle game. More in the background, less tangible, and also less well understood.
