The changing landscape of cybersecurity challenges and countermeasures

The nature of cybersecurity has taken a dire turn across the aerospace and defense industry as threat vectors multiply and incidents such as the SolarWinds attack have caught many organizations unprepared.

Aerospace and defense companies have a challenging mission in protecting and maintaining mission-critical systems and insulating them from cybersecurity threats. Online cybersecurity expert discussion recently hosted by Defense Daily explored emerging vulnerabilities and detailed the challenges faced by the industry in identifying and mitigating attacks.
