China and Russia are conducting malicious cyber campaigns to erode U.S. military advantages, threaten U.S. infrastructure and reduce U.S. economic prosperity.

North Korea poses a significant threat to the international financial and commercial sectors by sponsoring cyber exploitation of financial institutions to illicitly acquire funding and evade U.S. and United Nations sanctions.

Iran has demonstrated the capability and intent to strike in its region and against the United States in cyberspace.

By operating in cyberspace, adversaries can cause damage while operating below the level of armed conflict, and they are targeting economies, critical infrastructure and electoral processes.

Adversaries have launched persistent malicious cyber campaigns to erode military advantages and increasingly leverage social media to carry out and influence operations. They also steal defense secrets, intellectual property and personally identifiable information.

We must raise the bar. We must be resilient, and we must act.

Our success in the new era of strategic competition will rely, in part, on our ability to develop partnerships of all kinds that acknowledge shared risks, shared goals and shared solutions.
