DoD has faced Operational Technology (OT) challenges for years. Nation-state actors have been embedding trojanized devices, corrupted firmware, and counterfeit components across the Department of Defense’s operational technology (OT) supply chain.
But the threat is evolving, and expanding exponentially. Autonomous, agentic AI, and generative adversarial networks will do far more than a typical botnet. These non-human identities are machine-to-machine connections not subject to zero trust principles. They can look for vulnerabilities, exploit gaps faster than human defenders can respond, and manipulate the digital terrain with unprecedented precision. These systems can learn from each other, operate without direct instruction, and coordinate attacks on...
