Top American cybersecurity officials are working to prevent a digital war with China and are ramping up outreach to allies overseas to bolster defenses ahead of any future conflict.
Foreign participation is growing in a major U.S.-run cybertraining exercise and leading American officials are making more visits to the Indo-Pacific region amid concern about cyberchaos spreading from China.
“My fervent hope is to avoid cyberconflict with China but at the same time of course, a key piece of our remit is bolstering cybercapacity among our allies and partners all around the world,” he told The Washington Times at an event hosted by George Washington University’s Project for Media and National Security.
The upcoming summer training exercise already has more than 30 nations intending to participate, Gen. Nakasone told a House Armed Services Committee hearing last month. Some cybersecurity experts expect any Chinese invasion of Taiwan to be accompanied by cyberattacks against the West and the U.S.
