When you hear “COWs,” you might not immediately think about national security. But in the world of telecommunications, COWs are critical mobile systems that keep communities connected when traditional networks fail.

In this session, Dr. Connor will explore how Communications on Wheels (COWs) support emergency response, disaster recovery, and infrastructure when traditional networks are disrupted. You'll learn how these mobile systems strengthen connectivity across critical sectors.

The discussion will cover emerging threats to communication networks, strategies for building resilient systems, and the evolving role of mobile telecommunications in national security.
