SECURING THE ALLIANCE
The digital revolution is changing the very nature of warfare. Cyberattacks present grave and complex dangers to everything from global energy grids to fundamental democratic processes. How can NATO, a 70-year-old organization and a bedrock of security for North America and Europe, keep pace with these hybrid threats? And what role does the U.S., a founding member of NATO, have in building trust, preventing conflict, and securing the alliance?

Earlier this week, Project Manager Mission Command teamed up with the U.S. Army Cyber Center of Excellence (CCoE) to develop and evaluate use cases of the Cyber Situational Understanding (Cyber SU) program. The effort, which is a follow-on to last week’s Tactical Defensive Cyber Operations Infrastructure (TDI) pentest, will help lay the foundation for additional Cyber SU systems engineering efforts from requirements to architecture and interface devleopment.
Cyber SU leverages Cyber Electromagnetic Activities (CEMA) analysis to provide meaning to otherwise disparate data, and identify how cyberattacks impact both mission planning and mission execution.
“Commanders may not care that one particular piece of hardware went down but they certainly care about losing capability,” said CW4 Alexander Adorno from CCoE’s TCM Cyber, U.S. Army Training and Doctrine Command's centralized capability development integrator for Cyberspace Operations. “By compiling information on potential cyber threats across multiple systems into one picture, we can look at cyber components enabling various warfighting functions, the dependencies for each and monitor how they would impact the mission if targeted.” Adorno added that in the future, commanders will be able to leverage Cyber SU to see more information and analytics on individual dependencies rather than if they are simply up, down or degraded.
Cyber SU relies on data from the Command Post Computing Environment (CP CE), Distributed Common Ground Station-Army (DCGS-A), Electronic Warfare Planning and Management Tool (EWPMT), Joint Battle Command-Platform (JBC-P), as well as tactical network and tactical radio systems. Representatives from these programs participated in Cyber SU working groups this week.

ACE is a four-week program consisting of an instructional component, cyber war exercises and cyber officer development days focusing on the study of cyber and its unique leadership challenges.

Kenneth Saul Rogoff the 59 year old American Professor of Public Policy & Economics, and a chess Grandmaster has published an article on the Project Syndicate titled ‘Will Governmental Folly Now Allow for a Cyber Crisis?’ claiming most politicians are congenitally incapable of making difficult choices until risks actually materialise. In the article Rogoff states “When the financial crisis of 2008 hit, many shocked critics asked why markets, regulators and financial experts failed to see it coming. Today, one might ask the same question about the global economy’s vulnerability to cyber-attack. Indeed, the parallels between financial crises and the threat of cyber meltdowns are striking. Although the greatest cyber threat comes from rogue states with the capacity to develop extremely sophisticated computer viruses, risks can also come from anarchistic hackers and terrorists, or even from computer glitches compounded by natural catastrophe. …No economy is more vulnerable than the US, and it is arrogance to believe that US cyber superiority (to all except perhaps China) provides it with impenetrable security from attack. …Unfortunately the solution is not so simple as just building better anti-virus programmes. Virus protection and virus development constitute an uneven arms race. A virus can be just a couple hundred lines of computer code, compared to hundreds of thousands of lines for anti-virus programmes, which must be designed to detect wide classes of enemies. We are told not to worry about large-scale cyber meltdowns, because none has occurred, and governments are being vigilant.” Inspired by Project Syndicate ow.ly/czr9N image source IMF ow.ly/czr1P

LUNCH SESSIONS
HACKING OUR DEFENSES
As cyberattacks become more sophisticated and more frequent, the stakes for companies protect their data and people have never been higher. Leaders in global payments and
enterprise technology will share insights on how threats are evolving—and what’s needed to stay prepared. Topics will include growing risks across regions, the role of AI in both attacks and defense, and why security is as much about people and processes as it is about tools. What does it really take to stay resilient in a world where every vulnerability can become a headline? And what bold moves should leaders make now to harden their defenses before the next breach?
