Summary/Abstract: This paper brings together authors from a diverse range of technical areas to discuss the evolving cyber threat landscape and how military forces, have transformed their capabilities to meet present-day operational challenges in cyberspace. The Internet of Things (IoT) is based on the premise that enough data can lead to new perspectives on processes and systems. With over 7 billion IoT devices connected today, experts expect that number to increase to 22 billion by 2025. They can be used to support decisions and new products and services, or they can lead to internal savings and new external revenue streams. Despite countless discussions and opinions on the definition of AI in its various facets, successful IoT implementation projects require major actors to play their part, but in conjunction with human experts to work with to make better decisions in cyberspace, improving the quality of human-machine team’s actions in asymmetric operations. The Defence domain already looking at ways to organize better human-machine teams, which promise to boost individual and team performance, reduce threats to humans, enable new operating concepts, and ultimately boost national power.
