Colonel Avraham Cohen, Head of National Security Cyber Research Group and the Co-Founder and Chief Technology Officer (CTO) of Sphere-SOC based in Israel, participates in Risk Roundup to discuss – Electromagnetic Warfare.

Electromagnetic Warfare

As the digital global age depends on the digital infrastructure and digital connectivity, individuals as well as entities across each nation: its government, industries, organizations, and academia (NGIOA) today increasingly depend on closely integrated, high-speed electronic systems. Now, when any weapon gives our opponents or enemies the ability to use the electromagnetic (EM) spectrum and its signals to deny us the ability to use these signals for our digital infrastructure, digital connectivity, and digital initiatives, it becomes a cause of great concern.

Current state – Electromagnetic Warfare

Since the electromagnetic threat scenarios seem to be real and growing, there is no doubt that “electromagnetic warfare” (EW) is here.

It seems that the world is already changing in many unforeseen ways and computer code, connected computers, and the internet have connected cyberspace to geospace and space. Today, irrespective of individuals and entities across NGIOA, we are living in a time of increasing uncertainty on many fronts. Amidst that understanding, each warfare, both existing as well as emerging, from cyberspace, geospace, and space (CGS) has become a survival necessity.

So, when electromagnetic warfare seems already on our doorsteps, it is important to evaluate how to meet the complex warfare challenges that are threatening the very progress, individuals, and entities across nations: its governments, industries, organizations, and academia (NGIOA) have made in cyberspace, geospace, and space (CGS).

Way forward – Electromagnetic Warfare

It is therefore important that we understand and evaluate this further:

  • Fundamentals of electromagnetic warfare
  • Digitally controlled infrastructure vulnerability
  • Protecting electronic infrastructure
  • Electromagnetic warfare preparedness

Conclusion – Electromagnetic Warfare

Electromagnetic warfare is undoubtedly becoming a major cause of concern, and the issue is likely to become even more prominent for entities across NGIOA in the coming years. Time is now to talk about Electromagnetic Warfare risks!
