Thank you for the question. I will say this cyber-weapon is a very formidable one, and it has downed various vectors, as the professionals often refer to it. How did it become so formidable? I think there are really two answers to that.
One is a general answer. It's the nature of the digital lives that we all lead, which creates great openings and vulnerabilities, particularly for sophisticated foreign state actors to try to gain access to our data for all kinds of manipulative purposes.
The other answer is that it's a very significant threat. The other way in which cyber has become so significant is that it has created an entirely new kind of tool for foreign states to conduct espionage operations against adversaries or countries of interest. The foreign espionage aspect of cyber capabilities is one that I think we perhaps do not pay enough attention to in the context of all the discussions we've had about foreign interference.
Thank you.
