When the National Security Division (NSD) at the US Department of Justice was established in 2006, its primary mission was combatting terrorism. Today, the division’s work is varied, with a significant focus on combatting national security-related economic espionage and cybercrime. At this Forum, Assistant Attorney General for National Security John Demers will join Reiss Center Distinguished Senior Fellow Lisa Monaco in a wide-ranging conversation on the practice of national security law at the Department of Justice today. They’ll discuss a range of key issues and challenges, from Chinese economic and political espionage to Russian influence campaigns to the current state of international and domestic terrorism. This event is co-hosted by the Reiss Center on Law and Security.
