The Fragility of Global Connectivity_ How One Cut Could End the Internet

Today, let’s dive into a pressing issue facing us all—the threats to our global internet infrastructure. As the backbone of our communication and trade, the internet is under siege, and understanding the nature of these threats is crucial. Recent data shows that in 2023 alone, a staggering 13 cyberattacks occurred every second around the world. Can you imagine that? With each click, data transfer, or smart device activation, we’re all vulnerable.One of the most alarming trends we’re witnessing is the rise of cyberattacks targeting critical national infrastructure. Take, for instance, the UK, where nearly 95% of organizations linked to such infrastructure reported being attacked in 2024.

These attacks have the potential to disrupt essential services, like energy and water supply, thereby affecting every aspect of our daily lives.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/conspiracy-theories-exploring-the-unseen--5194379/support.
