The Battlefield’s Newest Weapon Doesn’t Fire a Shot—It Makes Decisions
Modern military operations depend heavily on the electromagnetic spectrum. Radar systems, communications networks, GPS signals and electronic warfare equipment all compete for access to...
This Tiny Cyber Probe Can Tell When a Device Has Been...
Protecting critical systems becomes especially difficult once an attacker gets inside the device itself. Conventional cybersecurity tools can monitor network traffic, identify known vulnerabilities...
€3 Billion Deal Brings Israeli Multi-Layered Air Defense to Greece
Air defense systems today must contend with a wide range of fundamentally different threats: ballistic missiles traveling at high speeds and altitudes, fighter aircraft,...
The Javelin Missile Is Getting a Next-Generation Infrared Upgrade
Modern armored vehicles are increasingly equipped with camouflage, thermal-management technologies and other measures intended to make them harder to identify and engage. At the...
An Entire Rocket Launch Site Will Be Able to Fit Into...
Traditional rocket launches depend on large, permanent spaceports containing launch pads, control systems and specialized ground equipment. That infrastructure is expensive, geographically fixed and...
Hackers Can Slip Through This CPU Defense in Just Nanoseconds
Modern processors routinely predict what software will do next so they can begin executing instructions before they are actually needed. This technique, known as...
The Next Defense Against GPS Jamming Could Be Quantum-Based
Modern military operations depend heavily on satellite navigation, secure communications and precise timing. That dependence creates vulnerabilities: GPS and other satellite signals can be...
A Clever Trap Tricked an AI Coding Agent Into Running Malware
AI coding agents are increasingly able to browse websites, download files, write programs and execute commands with limited human supervision. Those capabilities make them...
This Surveillance Drone Can Take Orders Directly From a Crewed Aircraft
Maritime surveillance requires military forces to monitor enormous areas while identifying ships, submarines and other potential threats as quickly as possible. Crewed patrol aircraft...
These Cybersecurity Tools May Be Exposing the Data They’re Meant to...
URL-scanning services are widely used as an early warning system against phishing and malware. Companies can automatically submit links from incoming emails to services...
This Technology Gives Autonomous Drones Better Eyes in the Sky
Flying autonomously through complex environments requires more than knowing where a drone is. The aircraft must continuously understand what surrounds it, distinguish open routes...
This Drone Can Patrol Hundreds of Kilometers of Critical Infrastructure
Inspecting pipelines, power lines and transportation corridors presents a difficult logistical problem. These assets can stretch for hundreds of kilometers through remote terrain, making...
