A conversation with DHS Under Secretary for Intelligence and Analysis Kenneth Wainstein on the current threat environment 

Tuesday, September 19, 2023, 10:00 – 11:30 a.m. EDT
The Brookings Institution, Falk Auditorium, 1775 Massachusetts Ave. NW. Washington, D.C.

Twenty-two years since the 9/11 attacks, the threat environment in the United States has greatly evolved, with concerns of domestic violent extremism added to post-9/11 threats from foreign actors. As the domestic threat environment has changed, so has the mission of the Office of Intelligence and Analysis (I&A) at the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). 

On September 19, join Governance Studies at the Brookings Institution for an event with Under Secretary for Intelligence and Analysis at the Department of Homeland Security, Kenneth Wainstein. Wainstein will discuss the critical mission of the Office of Intelligence and Analysis (I&A) at the Department of Homeland Security. He will explain how I&A is evolving to meet the complexities of today’s threat environment while safeguarding Americans’ privacy, civil rights and civil liberties. He will then be joined in discussion by Governance Studies Senior Fellow Benjamin Wittes. Audience Q&A will follow the conversation.
