Cyber Defense
Defense of critical networks and key infrastructure should be the focus of all governments. Military or civilian government organizations are often responsible for this task, but the most successful nations are the ones who have a deep understanding and knowledge of how information sharing between the public and private sectors benefits all.
Some advanced persistent threat actors focus on gaining access to these critical networks to launch a sophisticated cyber-attack or gain vital intelligence, while cybercrime actors often exploit the access to these networks for large financial payouts.
