Our Nation faces serious challenges, and we're up for the task. Office of the DNI just released its Annual Threat Assessment, which demonstrates the commitment of NSA/CSS, U.S. Cyber Command, and our partners to provide timely, actionable intelligence to U.S. leaders. dni.gov/files/ODNI/doc…

I am honored to assume the role of Commander, U.S. Cyber Command, Director, NSA/CSS / Chief, CSS. We Win With People - I have immense trust and confidence in our people to successfully execute our consequential missions and protect our Nation.

It’s been an honor to lead U.S. Cyber Command & NSA/CSS for the past five plus years. Through all the opportunities and challenges we’ve faced, I’m most proud of our talented workforce who work diligently every day to secure the Nation and defend the future.

We sat down with Gen. Paul Nakasone, General Timothy D. Haugh, as shares his insight on the past five years of leading NSA and the opportunities ahead, including global competition and the future of AI. Watch a highlight below, then the full version here: youtube.com/watch?v=D1bzZw…

I was saddened to hear of the passing of Dr. David Kahn, a giant in American cryptology. A journalist, scholar, author, and member of NSA's Cryptologic Hall of Honor, he had an immense impact on educating the public about the value of cryptology to national security.

As AI capabilities enhance the scope, scale, speed, and sophistication of malicious activities across the cyber domain, FBI, U.S. Cyber Command, and NSA/CSS collaboration and work is fundamental in countering foreign cyber threats targeting our Nation.

Having served alongside Lt. Gen. Haugh at U.S. Cyber Command and NSA/CSS over the past decade, I can personally attest to his steadfast leadership, integrity-first mentality, and unwavering sense of duty.
Serving and leading the people of CYBERCOM and NSA/CSS has been my highest honor.

It’s been a tremendous year at the National Security Agency for cybersecurity. We bring two key pieces to the equation: our ability to understand the threat and our talent. I spoke with Dave Luber about our 2023 Cybersecurity Year in Review – take a moment to watch.

Cybersecurity matters. It matters to our partners and it matters to us. It ensures that our information, our intelligence, our knowledge can be shared securely, all in the service of national security. I encourage you to read our 2023 Cybersecurity Year in Review to learn more.

I thank Defence Australia Force Liaison Officer, Group Capt. Paul Pettigrew, Royal Australian Air Force for his partnership, and wish him well. His energy, technical expertise, and professionalism enhanced trust and collaboration between U.S. Cyber Command, Australian Signals Directorate and Australian Cyber Security Centre. #PartnershipsMatter

Thank you to USC Army ROTC and USC Viterbi School Vice Dean Belz for inviting me to speak. Intelligence has never been more important in helping us understand the world. I am confident the future leaders I met at USC will expertly tackle the challenges facing us.

A great discussion at Ronald Reagan Institute (RRI) about protecting our Hemisphere and our Homeland. U.S. Cyber Command and NSA/CSS look forward to our continued work supporting policymakers and U.S. Southern Command in their work building stronger partnerships and outcomes for our allies and partners.

Thank you @Dartmouth. Enjoyed talking about intelligence & cybersecurity with present and future #compsci leaders. NSA/CSS and U.S. Cyber Command are well positioned to defend the nation because our diverse, expert workforce constantly adapts to an ever-changing security environment.

Great visit to @NorwichNews, ROTC's birthplace, talking w/ future military leaders preparing for cyber careers. NSA/CSS and U.S. Cyber Command rely on civilian and military employees alike. We are prepared to defend the nation because of their expertise and commitment to our mission.

Great visit to Harvard University engaging with the students, faculty, and future leaders Belfer Center and Harvard Kennedy School. We discussed U.S. Cyber Command and NSA/CSS's mission led by innovative people who tackle national and cybersecurity challenges with our Nation's defense at the forefront.

Thank you IEEE for inviting me to speak. The U.S. is a world leader in AI. NSA/CSS's new AI Security Center will leverage our unique intelligence insights and expertise to protect our national security AI capabilities and will help U.S. Cyber Command defend against AI threats.

I was honored to host the Honorable Jim Langevin and Justice Richard Bernstein Richard Bernstein at NSA’s National #DisabilityEmploymentAwarenessMonth event. NSA/CSS and U.S. Cyber Command are proud of the contributions that people with disabilities in our workforce make every day.

Please join me in extending a heartfelt thanks to my friend and colleague, George Barnes, and the entire Barnes family for their service to our Nation. George has been invaluable to our country in supporting NSA/CSS’s efforts through unprecedented world crises and conflict.
