Russian disinformation in a post-truth world

In this episode of the Cyber Security Uncut podcast, Liam Garman and Daniel Croft unpack the social paradigm of post-truth and how Russia’s Internet Research Agency has exploited this to prosecute online disinformation campaigns.

• The pair begin defining post-truth and how individuals are increasingly using emotion and affiliative sensemaking to cut through information on the internet.
• They then look into case studies of how Russia’s Internet Research Agency prosecutes online information campaigns.
• Garman and Croft wrap up the podcast by examining how artificial intelligence will be used in future information environments.
