Security governance surrounding infectious diseases necessitates collaboration and information sharing among diverse actors, including nationstates and institutions. The Global Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance System (GLASS), a form of opensource intelligence, facilitates collaboration among participating countries and enables effective monitoring of infectious diseases. However, this interconnectedness also creates vulnerabilities, opening channels for nontraditional threats ranging from cybercrimes to potential biological attacks. Gaudys L. Sanclemente analyses how the emergence of unconventional threats, such as the COVID19 pandemic and antimicrobial resistance, activates security governance, emphasizing the critical role of collaborative dynamics enabled by the open data exchange facilitated by GLASS. By contributing to the fields of international relations, security, cybersecurity, science, technology, health, and network science, this book provides valuable insights into the complexities of safeguarding global health in an era increasingly defined by technological advancements and emerging threats.
