Overview
Write a persuasive intelligence assessment on Cybersecurity Threats and National Security. Your customer (imaginative policymaker) is considering policy options on the issue and requests an update. The assessment must be between three to five paragraphs long. You must use a minimum of four different sources; at least one of the sources you use must provide a divergent perspective on the issue, and you must use at least two types (commercial news outlets, academic, think tank, press release, etc.) of sources. You must synthesize your sources' information into a clear and concise analytic product. Follow the inverted pyramid model of analytic writing and remember the four essences of analytic writing.
- Cybersecurity Threats and National Security:
- Issue: The increasing frequency and sophistication of cyberattacks pose significant risks to national security.
