This issue of the CLAWS Cyber Index covers a highly militarized phase of automated warfare, highlighting the intersection of indigenous defense capabilities, sovereign technology supply chains, and state-sponsored digital espionage. It details India’s strategic push for technological self-reliance through the successful flight test of the Long Range Land Attack Cruise Missile (LRLACM) and the Indian Army’s secure digital transformation partnership with Zoho Corporation. Globally, the index analyzes the rising geopolitical stakes of artificial intelligence and semiconductor sovereignty, tracing the regulatory friction surrounding Anthropic’s Fable 5, China’s deployment of the “Yitian Tulong” AI framework, and the structural alignment of the Netherlands into the U.S.-led “Pax Silica” initiative. Finally, the briefing breaks down persistent critical infrastructure threats and complex supply-chain vulnerabilities, detailing campaigns by China-nexus actors CL-STA-1062 and UNC6508, the physical sabotage of trans-Baltic undersea cables, and the rapid proliferation of “Shai-Hulud” malware clones exploiting open-source software repositories.
