Gentry Lane, founder of Nemesis Global, joins the Nexus Podcast to discuss the strategies guiding adversaries in their targeting of U.S. critical infrastructure. Primary of which is the desire of countries such as China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea to displace the U.S. as the global hegemon, she said. 

To disrupt the U.S.' standing as such, these adversaries have chose cyberspace as a front where they're on relatively equal footing. They're doing so incrementally, Lane said, known as salami tactics. Salami tactics is a strategy of gradually cutting into an opposition's dominance by instilling distrust in institutions, utilities, or the government's ability to protect us. Gentry describes theses tactics, their effectiveness, and what critical infrastructure defenders should be doing to protect their systems and networks.
