The two disciplines stopped being separate once radios became computers. An access that starts as a radio-frequency injection and ends inside a network is neither cyber nor electronic warfare as either was defined, and most militaries have given up organizing them apart.
This section covers military network defense, offensive cyber, and that convergence. Cyber commands and how they are staffed, intrusions into defense contractors and their suppliers, weapons-system software security, cryptographic modernization, resilience of command networks under attack, and the doctrine attempting to describe all of it.
Attribution is reported as claimed unless a government has published evidence. Where an incident is disclosed months late, which is normal, the disclosure date appears alongside the intrusion date.

The Army will extend identity, credential and access management across the enterprise and into field units this year. Officials expect wider use of automated account provisioning and privileged access tools by the end of 2025, with more systems added as connectors mature.
U.S. investigators say a long-running Chinese cyber campaign hit more than 80 countries and reached far beyond phone companies. Security teams traced the operation across telecommunications backbones and into government, transportation, lodging and military infrastructure.
Dutch military and domestic intelligence services report that a China-linked espionage group known as Salt Typhoon struck targets in the Netherlands and touched national critical infrastructure. The services identified activity against smaller internet service and hosting providers.
The Pentagon has ordered the Army to stand up Joint Interagency Task Force 401 and shut down the Joint Counter-small Unmanned Aircraft Systems Office once the new team is in place.
Roland R. Wright Air National Guard Base in Salt Lake City will host two Air National Guard cyber operations squadrons under a Department of the Air Force stationing decision published Sept. 11. The 109th Air Control Squadron will be inactivated under the

A Chinese state-sponsored intrusion set off alarms in Washington this week after investigators confirmed that the hacking unit known as Salt Typhoon burrowed into a U.S. Army National Guard network for nine months and quietly siphoned off the keys to many other
French defense officials have confirmed that an eight-year program led by Airbus Defence and Space will stand up a dedicated cyber-training ecosystem for the Ministry of the Armed Forces, bringing fresh resources to the Cyber Defence Command (COMCYBER) less than a week
Electronic Warfare covers the spectrum side on its own terms: jamming, electronic attack, electronic protection. Digital Systems & Software follows the networks and mission software being defended here. AI & Autonomy carries model security and automated defense. The intelligence collection that feeds and depends on both is in Surveillance & Reconnaissance.
