Hi Marcela,
Maybe you can point me in the right direction.
I'm looking for the person(s) who is end-responsible for the NATO security/defense policy?
There is a nasty catch-22 in the cyber-defense section of policy, whereby NATO security services clearly fail to actually implement/enforce some essential basic security measures, thus leaving key sections of the infra rather recklessly known to be vulnerable to espionage & sabotage and long term unnoticed digital infiltration.
Interested to find out if NATO organization is at all able to handle criticism on its choices, or if management rather goes on as before within an Ivory Tower structure while hostile actors use the key infra for their own goals.
Seems like Rusi.org is one of the typical Ivory Tower organisations which can't even simply protect their own infra against data leaks/breaches.
Because constructive 'criticism' from front-line security field engineers is ignored for many years now by RUSI associates who published their incorrect academic/bureaucratic reports.
At the same time those RUSI 'experts' keep dishing out more and more proven to be incorrect academic "advice" to government on what to do, with far reaching detrimental consequences for state defence!

:( static.rusi.org/rusi-global-approaches-to-cyber-special-resource.pdf
==> en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Emperor's_New_Clothes
Basic question: Does leadership actually "want" to protected the country and its citizens all around the world against such hostile activities?* If not, why not ?* If so, when will you start using the age old " safeguard " method to remove that catch-22 and very simply fully assure a functional foolproof protection structure?
