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.
