UK unveils 1 bln pound cyberwarfare initiative to repel attacks on its digital space

London, May 29 (UNI) The UK has unveiled a massive £1 billion cyber and artificial intelligence initiative aimed at strengthening its digital defences against alleged threats from hostile nations such as Russia, North Korea, Iran and China.
Defence Secretary John Healey announced the formation of a new Cyber and Electromagnetic Command, which will oversee offensive hacking operations and spearhead the development of an AI-powered ‘kill web’ — a real-time digital targeting network connecting satellites, drones, F-35 jets and battlefield sensors, reports Daily Express.
“This is the nerve centre of the UK’s military that helps us defend against these attacks,” said Healey during a visit to MoD Corsham. “The keyboard has become a weapon of war.”
