Fegyverrendszerek sebezhetősége

Az alábbi idézettel kezdi bejegyzését Bruce Schneier a blogján: “Ha úgy gondolod, hogy a rendszereid az elvártaknak megfelelően fognak működni egy háború során, akkor csak hülyét csinálsz magadból”

A 21. századi konfliktusok a kiber műveleteket is magukban hordozzák. Fegyver- és logisztikai rendszerek is célpontok lesznek, így karabélyok, pisztolyok drónok vagy kórházak nem fognak működni, vagy az utánpótlás nem érkezik meg időben. 

Az elmúlt évtizedben számos ország építette fel a kiber parancsnokságát, fogadott el kiber doktrínát. De a beszélgetésnek nem szabad csak a támadási képességre koncentrálnia. Ha úgy vásárolunk új fegyvereket felszereléseket és építünk ki új képességeket, hogy azokat nem tudjuk megvédeni, az olyan mintha megvennénk a legjobb puskát majd azt egy őrizetlen lezáratlan szekrénybe tennénk.
