The Threat Horizon: DIA 2025 Global Security

CISO Insights: Voices in Cybersecurity

The 2025 Worldwide Threat Assessment by the Defense Intelligence Agency describes a rapidly changing global security environment where national security threats are expanding, fueled by advanced technology. It identifies key regional security flashpoints, including threats to the U.S. Homeland and Southern Border, China's assertiveness in the Indo-Pacific (especially regarding Taiwan and the South China Sea), Russia's actions in Ukraine and its global influence, and Iran and its proxy forces in the Middle East. The assessment highlights the growing cooperation among U.S. competitors and adversaries—specifically China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea—who are strengthening ties, supporting each other in conflicts, collaborating to evade sanctions, and leveraging technology to undermine the influence of the United States and its allies.
