It is quite alarming how cyber-attacks
continue not just on personal and business sites, but also on all
government pages and websites. Cyber defence is an utmost urgency these
days not just for social media users at a personal level but also for
business and most of all for countries that need to protect their
virtual boundaries.
There are an increasing number of individuals who have fast become experts of information technology but whose expertise are becoming a disadvantage to the public due to the fraud or scams they implement online. There is no other way to counter these virtual attacks but for the governing bodies of nations to solidify its cyber defence as an important tool in Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance or ISR mission. Otherwise, many countries will remain to be victims of individuals and professionals who want to sabotage national security and stability through cyber-attacks.
The power of both computers and internet has proven to be very useful in this time and age. The speedy flow of information is definitely a great advantage to the convenience of our day to day living and efficiency in doing daily tasks. However, lack of expertise in this field may prove to be very disadvantageous especially on a national level. It is not enough to have the necessary websites, systems, platforms, gadgets, tools and electronic equipment which are very expensive but to know how to use it and defend all cyber-attacks against it that may risk national security and stability.
An ISR mission undertaken by any government body will not simply save the citizens of the nation but the future generation as well. As more and more cyber-attacks are initiated by countless parties with varying interest, it is important to know who your enemies are and what they really are up to. Otherwise, government institutions and the nations themselves will simply fall prey to cyber geniuses who are able to manipulate online data in the absence of proper virtual defense mechanisms and infrastructure.
An ISR mission is best taken as a preventive measure but is not as complete or reliable in the absence of virtual defense structures to back it up. It is an important way to make sure that there is no delaying or uncovering the ISR mission that the nation embarks on. Defense set up on virtual boundaries can also make sure that ISR mission remain confidential and free from cyber-attacks as well which may compromise the ISR mission in the end.
