In *The Digital Trenches*, Modderkolk reveals where the danger comes from. He explains how the Russians proceed step by step to infiltrate critical infrastructure and undermine democracy. And he describes how they plan influence operations and covertly steal information.
While Europe is, understandably, preoccupied with Putin’s threat, China is playing a smarter and more cunning game—one that operates more in the background, is less tangible, and is also less well understood. Modderkolk reveals how Xi’s forces are quietly infiltrating Dutch systems and stealing highly sensitive data.
And then there’s the omnipotence of the American surveillance state, led by a reckless Trump. Where do its tentacles reach? And is there any way to escape it?
In this theatercollege , Modderkolk brings this invisible struggle to life and shows what is at stake. He explains how and where the Dutch security services are fighting back and are certainly not powerless.
Huib Modderkolk is an investigative journalist for De Volkskrant. He is an expert on intelligence services and digital warfare and has written several books, including *You Really Don’t Want to Know This* and *It’s War, But Nobody Sees It*.
