This year, the Atlantic Council’s Digital Forensic Research Lab (DFRLab) is taking its annual 360/Open Summit on the road with 360/OS: Around the World. We’ll be talking human rights, emerging technology, disinformation, and digital resilience at RightsCon in Costa Rica and NATO’s Riga StratCom Dialogue in Latvia, proving that the DFRLab can in fact be (almost) everywhere all at once.

360/Open Summit

Every summer, the DFRLab holds its annual 360/Open Summit. At 360/OS, we bring together our team of experts across six continents with policy makers, journalists, civil society, and industry for four days of cutting-edge programming focused on human rights and democracy in a hyperconnected, online world. 

360/StratCom

360/StratCom is the premier government-to-government forum focused on working with allies and partners to align free and open societies in an era of contested information. We find ourselves in a global competition for information and influence, and we face a rapidly evolving threat landscape, from war zones to our living rooms. Democracies must build resilience and work together against the proliferation of online influence operations around the world, as well as disinformation that recognizes no borders, spreading faster than facts. The accountability and security on which democracy depends hang in the balance.
