New Commercial Wave in Offensive Cyber Warfare

“For commercial companies trying to operate in this space, they have to be willing to understand that what they’re building is fundamentally different, and if they’re not willing to invest in this way, they can struggle with adoption,” said Skyler Onken, co-founder of Twenty, an offensive-cyber company seeking to reshape cyber warfare. On this episode of the Tech Disruptors podcast, Onken joins Bloomberg Intelligence senior defense weapons analyst Wayne Sanders to discuss the speed, scaling and complexity of cyberspace operations in a new age of warfare. Offensive cyberspace operations were once a cloak-and-dagger domain reserved for top defense primes and the military. That has shifted in the US, where offensive cyber is becoming more scalable and commercialized, with strong results.
