Fresh off the press: The new CNTR Monitor will be published on November 6. This year we focus on AI and its impacts on global security: how it's used in the military, dual-use risks of AI applications in biotechnology and chemistry, but also opportunities for verification. Stay tuned!

DNA sequences can be purchased for legitimate uses like research. Screening purchases can help DNA providers to prevent misuse. However, this process is not obligatory for companies everywhere, says @k3kr.bsky.social in the new Fact Sheet. #OpenAccess www.cntrarmscontrol.org/publications...
Steps in the Screening Process.
Three Steps. 
Step one: Customer. Is the customer legitimate? (known researcheer/lab in the scientific community)
Step two: Order. Are there red flags in the order details, e.g. shipping adress, payment, device authorization?
Step three: Sequence. Does the ordered sequence pose a biorisk? Does the customer have a legitimate use case and appropriate oversight?

“Dual-use risks are emerging from new lines of research within the field of oncolytic viral therapy. Researchers should carefully assess the risks & explore the opportunities for mitigation”, says @k3kr.bsky.social about viral engineering in our Monitor: monitor.cntrarmscontrol.org/en/2024/dual...
Image shows text: CNTR Monitor 2024. Analyses · Biotechnology.
Dual-Use Risks of Oncolytic Virus Engineering.
Certain biotechnologies have the potential to facilitate pathogen engineering, increasing the risk of large-scale biological events, e.g., major pandemics. This article assesses the dual-use potential of viral engineering using the example of oncolytic viruses. It also offers recommendations for managing the biosecurity risks associated with this research.

States have different priorities regarding the use of new technologies for security purposes, say @cyberpeace1.bsky.social @niklasschoernig.bsky.social @liskasuckau.bsky.social & Abdullah Korkusuz examining National Security Strategies. Read our Monitor: monitor.cntrarmscontrol.org/en/2024/a-gl...
Image shows text: CNTR Monitor 2024. Analyses · Emerging Disruptive Technologies.
A Global Perspective on New Military Technologies in National Security Strategies.
How do states view technology in the context of security policy? A comparative analysis of the national security strategies (NSS) of twelve countries between 2017 and 2023 shows that there are different approaches to how security and technology are conceived. There is both consensus and divergence with respect to relevant technologies, and there are groups of “like-minded” states. NSS tend to take a comprehensive view of security, which is why dual-use technologies, especially in the cyber domain, AI or network technologies, are in focus – either as military resources or as threats. This poses considerable challenges for arms control.

Recent advances in #biotechnology can be used to safeguard against biological threats. In the CNTR Monitor, @k3kr.bsky.social gives an overview of relevant technologies and possible applications from pathogen detection to genetic engineering attribution. monitor.cntrarmscontrol.org/en/2024/impl...
Image shows text: CNTR Monitor 2024. Trends · Biotechnology.
Implications of Technological Advancements for Biosecurity.
This chapter explores strategies for safeguarding against biological threats. It begins by examining a selection of pathogen identification methods, providing an overview of their technical capabilities, shortcomings, and underlying principles. The second part of the chapter provides a broader analysis of biological attacks, discussing microbial forensics and the potential of attribution of genetic engineering.

AI can help identify actors designing harmful biological agents. But the AI-Bio convergence might also enhance pathogen engineering & other misuse of #AI in life sciences. @k3kr.bsky.social explains how these risks can be mitigated in the CNTR Monitor: monitor.cntrarmscontrol.org/en/2024/tech...
Screenshot of the online publication. On light yellow ground the chapter title "Technological Implications of AI in Biorisk" is written, followed by the text's abstract: AI has increasingly been a topic of discussion in conventional arms control, battlefield management, and data analysis, as seen in contexts such as Ukraine and Gaza. Simultaneously, the growing influence of AI in various fields highlights the need for renewed discussions on policy and governance. This chapter aims to explore the potential implications of the convergence of biological sciences with AI. First, the numerous benefits that can arise at this intersection will be examined (with examples in biodefence and bioweapons/genetic engineering attribution). Then an analysis of the associated risks and suggestions for mitigation will be provided. Though some of these risks could be generalizable across biology and chemistry (e.g., using AI for a molecule/sequence design), this report focuses largely on the biological risks.

Why is it so difficult to regulate the emergence & distribution of 3D printed weapons? @liskasuckau.bsky.social explains how online communities & decentralized manufacturers are a dual-use risk of #AdditiveManufacturing. Read more in the CNTR Monitor: monitor.cntrarmscontrol.org/en/2024/addi...
Screenshot of the online publication. On light yellow ground the chapter title "Additive Manufacturing in Warfare" is written, followed by the text's abstract: The following is a brief overview of the dynamics of additive manufacturing (AM) for military purposes as a means of industrial and (unconventional) decentralized production of armaments and equipment. The latter has developed particularly rapidly, both in an industrial setting and in the hobbyist sector, leading to new security risks. Currently, AM is sparsely regulated, and innovative approaches are needed to tackle the challenges of global proliferation of self-manufactured 3D-printed armaments. Moreover, dual-use regulations would make it easier to control the proliferation of industrial machines that are capable of producing security-relevant technology.

Small drones disrupt power dynamics & threaten advanced powers with their low cost, rapid advancement & difficulty to counter. “Investment in a broad portfolio of drone defense measures is therefore mandatory”, says @niklasschoernig.bsky.social. Read more: monitor.cntrarmscontrol.org/en/2024/tech...
Screenshot of the online publication. On light yellow ground the chapter title "Technical, Military, and Political Developments in the Field of Drones" is written, followed by the text's abstract: Today’s wars are increasingly characterized by the vital role played by drones. The conflict over Nagorno-Karabakh in 2020 and the war in Ukraine are often apostrophized as “drone wars.” Yet, the full scope of operations that will be possible with the latest and especially future generations of drones is only just beginning to emerge. There is, however, some confusion surrounding the term “drone,” as many different types are subsumed under it. In this chapter, a technical distinction is first made between different types of drone before outlining the new military possibilities and future developments.

2. lightweight design and one-component parts
3. high degree of customisation
4. on-demand manufacturing and rapid prototyping
5. decreased material consumption
6. no tooling or mould needed to create volume
