The Silent Eve of Cyber Warfare

Behind the screens, a silent cyber war rages on, putting national security and personal data at unprecedented risk. Shockingly, nearly 80% of organizations have encountered cyber-attacks in recent times, a number that’s rapidly increasing as global tensions rise.

Cyber warfare is no longer theoretical; it’s an everyday reality. Government networks are prime targets, but businesses and individuals aren’t immune. What’s surprising is how underprepared many entities remain, despite the intensifying threats of digital attacks. But vigilance can make a difference.

Countries are investing billions into defensive and offensive cyber capabilities. Yet, by some analysts’ accounts, the gap between attackers’ and defenders’ capabilities is wider than ever. Enter the world of ethical hackers—often the unsung heroes in preventing onslaughts that can cripple economies or expose sensitive citizen information.

But here’s a twist: cyber warfare isn’t just about direct attacks. The psychological component, manipulating public opinion through misinformation and “fake news,” plays a significant role too. Discover next why digital literacy is crucial in combating these invisible forces.
