Cyber Strategy and Policy is a course that combines my major, Cybersecurity, with my minor, Political Science, which introduces strategy development and policy-making in the world of cybersecurity.

Over the course of a semester, I wrote a series of papers about the European Union’s Artificial Intelligence Act (2024) (EU AIA), with a cybersecurity focus. The EU created legislation that seeks to lay the foundation for AI integration into various forms of society. These papers allowed me to research one of the first regulations placed on AI, and the political, ethical and social implications of the AIA. It is important to note that the AIA was created before the prevalence of generative AI, and the lack of regulation that specifically addresses generative AI is noticeable; however, the AIA still has broader implications with ranging impact.

Paper One is an overview of the EU AIA, and the reason why I chose this specific policy
