Cyber resilience and national security
summary
The 2025 Strategic Defence Review is the first fully external SDR, receiving about 8–9k public submissions that are triaged with AI then read by humans, and it explicitly calls for a return to war‑fighting readiness as deterrence. It creates a CyberEM command and renames Strategic Command to emphasize cyber and specialist operations, cites private sector ownership of much of the national attack surface, and targets procurement reform from a 6.5‑year average to 2 years for major platforms and a 3 months rapid procurement target for fast innovation cycles.
