Our founder and CEO, Justin Sherman, has a new book available to preorder — on the story of how the United States came to govern so much technology through national security powers.
This post is a bit different — a note that our founder and CEO, Justin Sherman, has a new book on emerging technology, policy, and security issues now available for preorder: Navigating Technology and National Security. Brought to you by Global Cyber Strategies, a Washington, DC-based research and advisory firm.
The One-Liner
Navigating Technology and National Security dives into the story of how the United States came to govern so much technology — startup investments and data flows; TikTok and Grindr; the cloud systems we use every day and the AI models getting all the craze — through national security powers, where it’s all headed, and what it all means for the future of US technology innovation and security.

For years, the US relied on export controls and then reviews of investments in US companies to govern business moves impacting tech and national security.
Now, the US has many national security regulations and review programs — on submarine cables, tech supply chains, bulk data transfers, cloud computing services, outbound investment, and more — with a huge focus on private-sector technology, intangible digital things like software and data, fast-moving global tech supply chains, and areas where the US lacks wholesale, non-national-security rules for privacy, cybersecurity, and digital trust. What’s the vision? What are the unexpected benefits to US innovation and security these programs bring — and what are the risks to public accountability, tech governance, and the future of American technology? And how can the US chart a better path?
Whether you’re immersed in regulatory regimes like CFIUS, Team Telecom, bulk data transfer/data brokerage, or ICTS supply chain; work in emerging tech sectors like biotech, space, or AI that are increasingly subject to US national security powers; or want the story on how the US government has expanded its national security powers to govern technology — like with controlling who owns Grindr or whether TikTok is allowed on your phone — the book’s history, case studies, research, and firsthand stories will resonate.
