President Trump's National Security Strategy Highlights Sovereignty and Power

President Trump's National Security Strategy Highlights Sovereignty and Power

President Trump has released his second-term national security strategy, emphasizing U.S. sovereignty and power as central themes. The strategy moves away from the traditional rules-based international order, focusing instead on power dynamics and national interests. Key objectives include combating drug cartels in the Western Hemisphere, maintaining strategic dominance in regions like the Panama Canal, and encouraging European allies to take more responsibility for their security. In East Asia, the strategy aims to balance power with China, while in the Middle East, the focus is on peace agreements. Despite these goals, the strategy has faced criticism for its inconsistencies, such as Trump's interventions in foreign elections and the imposition of tariffs on Brazil, which have strained relations and complicated U.S. objectives in Latin America.

Japan's Cybersecurity Lag Raises Concerns Amid Rising Cyber Threats

Japan's Cybersecurity Lag Raises Concerns Amid Rising Cyber Threats

Japan's National Cyber Director, Yoichi Iida, has highlighted the country's lag in cybersecurity compared to the United States and Europe. Speaking at the CYDEF 2025 conference in Tokyo, Iida emphasized the need for significant improvements across Japan's corporate sector to defend against increasing cyber threats. Recent cyberattacks, including a ransomware attack on Asahi Group Holdings Ltd. and a breach at Askul Corp., have exposed vulnerabilities in Japan's cybersecurity infrastructure. Iida noted that smaller companies are particularly vulnerable due to limited resources, but larger firms are also at risk. Japan has recently adopted an 'active cyber-defense' law to enhance its cybersecurity measures, aiming to reach the standards of advanced Western nations. The law allows authorities to neutralize sources of cyber threats and publicize information about attackers to deter further activity.
