Guest: Julia Voo, Cyber Fellow at the Belfer Center, Harvard University

Julia Voo once auditioned for a part in Harry Potter because she wanted to go to Hogwarts. But it was much cooler to be a British foreign service officer in Beijing after Brexit covering China’s approach to cybersecurity policy and artificial intelligence from a trade perspective. Now, she’s crushing it on China and cyber policy at Harvard’s Belfer Center, where she serves as a Fellow, and has just led a global team in a comprehensive review of global cyber powers.

In this episode, Jonathan talks with Julia about how an innocuous one-off conversation kicked off the National Cyber Power Index (NCPI), the nature of cyber power in international relations, and the future of U.S.-China relations. Jonathan’s son also makes a brief cameo.

So who are the top ten most “cyber powerful” countries? And why is the Netherlands number 6? The National Cyber Power Index provides an overall measurement of a country’s aptitude as a cyber power – far more than just offensive and defensive capabilities. It gives a new look at international cyberpower, who wields it the most, and how it can best be leveraged in foreign affairs.
