Kinetic warfare headlines have understandably dominated in recent years. But the future battlespace will be shaped by a threat that – for the most part – remains unseen.
 MDI Insights Cyber and CEMA

In military and defence contexts, cyber falls under the category of the grey zone – where damage can be done without physical interaction or traditional conflict methods. With cyber-attacks being hard to attribute to particular threat actors and having the potential to cause significant societal damage, the concept of ‘CEMA’ (cyber and electromagnetic activities) is a global concern.

And the threat is only going to become more challenging over the coming years.
