Inside the armed forces’ cyber-defense HQ

Greece's Government Council for Foreign Affairs and Defense (KYSEA) recently approved a series of defense procurement programs aimed at developing a comprehensive, network-centric air defense system. These systems will integrate with existing military assets such as FDI frigates, F-35 and Rafale fighter jets, and microsatellites. In parallel, the newly established Directorate of Informatics and Cyberspace (DIPLIKYV) was inaugurated at the Ministry of National Defense, funded by a donation from Athanasios K. Laskaridis. The Cyberspace Command (DKYV), led by Brigadier General G.G., plays a crucial role in securing the interconnected networks of the Hellenic Armed Forces. During a visit to DIPLIKYV, Kathimerini learned that the facility, designed as a Faraday cage, protects sensitive equipment from electromagnetic interference. The command faces ongoing asymmetric and anonymous cyber threats, including espionage, data theft, and sabotage targeting critical infrastructure.
