Thank you for your question.
Not well.
I don't know. I'm not security-cleared. I'm just some guy, so I have no idea, but I can't imagine it's helpful.
The other thing we don't have is a national security strategy. In your last question, you were talking about strategic state behaviour. At the risk of stating the obvious, I think strategy begets strategy. In order to respond, one needs a strategic framework. Our last national security strategy was done in 2004, and it has not been updated since. If we're talking about gaps and things we might want to get our hands on, I would start with a strategic framework, where this is all linked.
I have a hard time seeing differences among traditional national security, economic espionage, data governance, the spy and cyber stuff. It's all part of the same thing now. Strong states are going to do what strong states do. They've been doing it since the dawn of time. This is perfectly logical behaviour. We need to respond with a strategic framework too.
