Abstract
National security has evolved far beyond defending physical borders with armies and walls. In contemporary times, threats encompass cyber warfare, pandemics, climate change, economic shocks and psychological manipulation—all interconnected in a web of vulnerability. A militarily strong nation can crumble under economic sanctions or social unrest, while environmental disasters trigger migrations and conflicts. True security certainly demands a holistic approach-bolstering military readiness alongside cyber defences, economic diversification, political stability, social cohesion, and sustainable resources. By integrating these dimensions— from energy and food security to technological innovation—nations can foster resilience, ensuring not just survival, but a prosperous future amid evolving risks.
Keywords: National Security, Technological Innovation, Non-Traditional Security
