CLAWS Cyber Index I Volume I I Issue 06
In this Issue of CLAWS Cyber Index the evolving landscape of global cybersecurity and geopolitics has seen significant developments across multiple regions. India recently countered a series of cyberattacks on its military institutions by a Pakistan-based hacker group, amid rising regional tensions. Simultaneously, China accelerates its technological autonomy through the launch of Huawei’s AI chip, while also facing international scrutiny for cyber-espionage activities and rare-earth export controls. In the U.S., policy shifts include new cyber rules for defense contractors and the controversial closure of its disinformation office, as firms like AMD face economic fallout from export restrictions. Meanwhile, state-sponsored cyber campaigns from Russia, North Korea, and Iran intensify across Europe and Asia, targeting critical infrastructure, diplomatic networks, and tech sectors. The report captures the strategic convergence of AI, cyber operations, and global power shifts, reflecting mounting concerns over national security, technological sovereignty, and digital warfare.
