Corgan Interviewed on Attempts to Sell Military Docs on Dark Web

Michael Corgan, Associate Professor of International Relations at the Frederick S. Pardee School of Global Studies, was interviewed for a recent article on a Somerville cybersecurity firm that uncovered an attempt to sell sensitive U.S. military documents on the dark web.

Corgan was interviewed for a July 12, 2018 article in The Boston Herald entitled “Somerville Company Uncovers Attempts to Sell Sensitive U.S. Military Documents on the Dark Web.”

From the text of the article:

Michael Corgan, a security expert and a Boston University professor, said the breach of sensitive military materials could induce a sense of vulnerability in U.S. troops.

“There’d be some discomfort out there,” Corgan said. “Somebody’s out there trying to sell it, make life far more difficult for them, far more dangerous for them.”

Affiliated with Boston University since 1985, Michael T. Corgan has also served as Chairman of the Department of Naval Science and Adjunct Professor in the Departments of Political Science and History. He specializes in American government institutions, international security studies, and Icelandic government and politics. He has participated in extensive government service in political and military planning (especially NATO).
