DESCRIPTION:This talk will briefly examine how we imagine and understand s
 ecurity in cyberspace\, as it pertains to the US in international affairs.
  Cyberspace is a disembodied warfighting domain\, one in which all citizen
 s also find themselves simultaneously on the battlefield. How we envision 
 this space has important implications for how we act in and securitise the
  cybersphere. How we identify a ‘cyber enemy’ beyond the border is dra
 wn from security assumptions that frame our conceptions of cyber attacks a
 nd ‘cyber enemies of the state.'\n\nThrough interviews and fieldwork\, m
 y research investigates some of the sites\, decisionmakers\, warriors\, cr
 eators and gatekeepers of US cybersecurity paradigms. The complex organisa
 tional structure of US cyber defence\, and the roles of multifarious actor
 s in how cybersecurity practices are enacted\, challenge us to reimagine i
 nternational security discourses of our present and futures.
