It was a <a href="https://www.cbsnews.com/news/ukraine-war-photos-lynsey-addario-documents-atrocities/">photograph</a> of a mother, her two children, and a church volunteer crumpled to the ground. They were the victims of a Russian mortar attack on civilians as they attempted to flee over the Irpin River to Kyiv. The photo, which was was taken by the Pulitzer Prize-winning photojournalist Lynsey Addario, sent shock-waves throughout the world.</p> <p style="font-weight: 400;">Capturing that image also put<a href="https://twitter.com/lynseyaddario"> Lynsey Addario</a> in grave danger, something that she has confronted many times over during her more than two-decade career as one of the most accomplished war-photographers in the world.</p> <p style="font-weight: 400;">Addario has had boots on the ground in Ukraine since the begining of the Russian invasion. And, as we near the one year anniversary of the war, she describes the toll of the conflict on Ukrainian civilians and reflects on the personal cost of covering conflict.</p> <p style="font-weight: 400;">Ukraine is just one of the war zones that Addario has traveled in and out of, on assignment for The New York Times, National Geographic, and other publications for more than two decades.</p> <p style="font-weight: 400;">In 2015, American Photo Magazine named Addario as one of the five most influential photographers of the past 25 years, saying she changed the way we saw the world&#8217;s conflicts.</p> <p style="font-weight: 400;">I spoke with Addario when she made a brief stop in Washington DC on November 3rd to receive the prestigious Courage in Journalism Award from the International Women’s Media Foundation.</p> <p style="font-weight: 400;">This is my third conversation with the fearless Addario. To hear her personal story of how she became a photojournalist, how she covers major conflicts, how she survived a violent kidnapping in Libya, and why she does the work she does, do check out my previous interview with Addario on my leadership podcast, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DL4NTAy4IGE&amp;list=PLr0ajNXL3iIj9imxp2doyHI2XR-Ee33IA&amp;index=37">When It Mattered, Episode 35</a>.

The FBI said the hackers who stole $615 million dollars in cryptocurrency were, in fact, from the group “Lazarus” which has direct ties to the government of North Korea.</p> <p dir="ltr">To add insult to injury, the brazen attack took place just weeks after President Joe Biden had released an Executive Order, authorizing a whole-of federal government approach to derisking digital assets.</p> <p dir="ltr">It was the equivalent of North Korea thumbing its nose at the U.S. Government.</p> <p dir="ltr">The incident revealed the incredible challenges confronting President Joe Biden and his national security and economic teams as they attempt to craft sweeping policies to protect consumers without hindering financial innovation, at the same time earning the trust of and cooperation from the crypto communities to help police the space, without violating the libertarian ethos undergirding blockchain, cryptocurrency, and digital assets.</p> <p dir="ltr">With all these challenges swirling about, I am delighted to share my recent wide-ranging conversation on crypto regulation and compliance with a key White House official who has been thinking about this and working on these complex issues for years.</p> <p dir="ltr"><a title="https://www.linkedin.com/in/carole-house-47471a40/" contenteditable="false" href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/carole-house-47471a40/">Carole House</a> is the former Director for Cybersecurity and Secure Digital Innovation for the <a title="https://www.whitehouse.gov/nsc/" contenteditable="false" href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/nsc/">National Security Council, The White House</a>.
