Legal Affairs Roundtable

Established in 2018, INSA’s Legal Affairs Roundtable aims to provide thought leadership on a broad range of legal issues that impact the Intelligence Community (IC) and its supporting partners in the private sector. The Roundtable consists of legal experts from the U.S. Government and INSA-member organizations.

The Roundtable meetings have examined issues related to the Internet of Things (IoT), artificial intelligence (AI), the Dark Web, the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS), and security clearance reform. It has also hosted one-on-one discussions with guests that include Robert S. Litt, former General Counsel of the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI), and Glenn Gerstell, General Counsel of the National Security Agency (NSA).
