Government and defence organizations operate in an era of unprecedented cyber risk. Supply chain vulnerabilities expose third-party vendors and hardware/software dependencies to cyber exploitation. The proliferation of IoT and OT-connected devices introduces unmanaged attack vectors, increasing the potential for security breaches. State-sponsored actors continue to engage in cyber-espionage, targeting critical infrastructure to exfiltrate sensitive intelligence. Additionally, adversaries employ hybrid warfare tactics and digital disruption campaigns to undermine national security functions and degrade the operational readiness of government entities.
