24 Jul 25. Japan joins AUKUS partners to enhance underwater communications for unmanned systems. The militaries of Japan, Australia, the UK, and US have been testing unmanned maritime systems and associated technologies including communication technologies under the ongoing Exercise ‘Talisman Sabreʼ 2025 held in Jervis Bay, Australia. (Commonwealth of Australia) The Japan Self-Defense Forces (JSDF) has joined the militaries of Australia, the United Kingdom, and United States to test underwater communications for unmanned maritime systems as part of AUKUS Pillar 2 efforts. Japan’s Ministry of Defense (MoD) and Australia’s Department of Defence (DoD) announced on 23 July that the tests were conducted during Exercise ‘Talisman Sabreʼ 2025 held in Australia from 13 July to 4 August. The tests were part of the AUKUS ‘Maritime Big Playʼ initiative, which is a series of integrated trilateral experiments and exercises aimed at advancing autonomous maritime systems and improving interoperability between the partners.

“The AUKUS partners and Japan worked together to enhance their use of underwater acoustic communications to task an underwater uncrewed vehicle to conduct activities at sea,” the DoD said.

In addition to testing underwater acoustic communications, the AUKUS partners demonstrated their ability to remotely control each other’s unmanned systems from great distances using common control technologies. For example, the Royal Australian Navy (RAN) was able to remotely transfer mission control of an extra-large unmanned underwater vehicle (XL-UUV) located in the UK to the UK Royal Navy (RN) from Jervis Bay in New South Wales, the DoD added. The DoD said, “The integration of autonomy and greater interoperability between our forces gives our military commanders more options to protect and defend critical seabed infrastructure and sea lanes of communication.” (Source: Janes)

24 Jul 25. Aselsan signs landmark agreement with Pamodzi to produce radios in South Africa. The signing ceremony between Pamodzi and Aselsan at IDEF 2025. At the IDEF 2025 defence exhibition currently underway in Istanbul, Turkey’s Aselsan has signed its first local production contract in South Africa, with Pamodzi Group, to produce two-way handheld radios primarily for the defence and security sectors. The agreement was finalised in May this year and signed on 22 July at IDEF by Frederick Leketi, Pamodzi Group Chief Investment Officer and Ahmet Akyol, Aselsan Group CEO. They were joined by South Africa’s Ambassador to Ankara, Dipuo Letsatsi‑Duba, and Deputy Minister of Defence and Military Veterans Bantu Holomisa. The local production contract is for Aselsan’s Astela 3710 radios. Mike Kgobe, head of the Aviation and Defence Systems division at Pamodzi Group, explained to defenceWeb that the agreement came out of a Department of Trade, Industry and Competition (the dtic) requirement in 2016/17 for two-way radios after it found the government was spending significant amounts of money on foreign radios (the police, defence force, state-owned entities, correctional services, and other government departments are big users of two-way radios, but the private security sector is also a large user).  On the back of a National Treasury (NT) Instruction Note 1 of 2016/17 for localisation of two-way handheld radios, the local defence and security industry was asked to localise radio production but was not able to, resulting in National Treasury and the dtic having to approve exemptions and deviations to public procurement legislation whenever public entities needed to procure two-way radios, Kgobe said.

He went on to say it did not make sense to reinvent the wheel, but to rather work with tested models to achieve a transfer of technology supporting localisation, industrialisation, and job creation.

Under the agreement, semi-knockdown kits will be acquired from Turkey, with local assembly and testing by Pamodzi BMG Electronic Communications, which was set up to handle the radio businesses. This is a partnership between Pamodzi Aviation and Defence Systems and BM Global Defence Systems, a black-owned investment holding company. In 2016 BM Global was inducted in the Defence Transformative Enterprise Development incubation programme of the Department of Defence, managed by Armscor. Pamodzi Aviation and Defence Systems owns 60% of Pamodzi BMG Electronic Communications, with BM Global owning the remaining 40%. Pamodzi and Aselsan will be working with the Independent Communications Authority of South Africa (ICASA) as the regulator as well as the Council for Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR), which have well-established facilities for electromagnetic spectrum testing. Kgobe explained that South Africa is an industrialised economy able to supply many of the required components, and local suppliers are being identified for the radios to achieve the required localisation content. The transfer of technology is a landmark agreement as it is the first Aselsan has done in Africa, but the Turkish company has carried out transfers of technology with radios for other customers around the world – it allows for local encryption to ensure security and sovereignty is retained. This is the first transfer of technology project concluded by Aselsan in South Africa. The two-way radio agreement is a starting point in South Africa and other projects with Aselsan are planned to follow. Aselsan is not taking any equity stake in the arrangement in order to speed up market penetration, but is subsidising a portion of the project. The company will also provide training for engineers and technicians.

Leketi told defenceWeb that Pamodzi has a nearly 50-year history in South Africa, with diversified investments across construction, food, fashion, catering, IT and many other interests. This includes defence, with Pamodzi having previously a 26% stake in LMT. Pamodzi Group is expanding further into the aerospace and defence sector, notably through the establishment of its Aviation and Defence Systems division.

As Pamodzi has a lot of strong relationships with private sector entities, it is optimistic about securing orders from private security players, notably large security firms. Other potential users include the South African National Defence Force (SANDF), Transnet, Eskom, Border Management Authority (BMA) etc. At a later stage, export sales will be considered on a case-by-case basis.

According to Kgobe, the main markets for Aselsan’s two-way radios are the South African National Defence Force, Department of Correctional Services, emergency medical services, and provincial governments, with most demand coming from the public sector. However, he believes that once the public sector acquires the radios, the private sector – particularly the security industry – will follow suite, especially as there is no direct competition in South Africa for locally produced two way radios. Local manufacture also means after-sales support and economies of scale.

Kgobe noted that Aselsan and Pamodzi are not aiming to offer the cheapest radio on the market but the most capable, including features like encryption and compatibility with other systems like body cameras.

The Astela Apco 3710 can, according to the manufacturer, operate in simplex (from radio-to-radio), direct (via repeaters), wide area conventional system and wide area trunk system modes. The radio has backward compatibility with legacy analogue FM radios, which provides radio users with the possibility of easy transition from analogue to digital communication.

The radio is ruggedised for use in challenging environments such as very high or very low temperature, high humidity, low pressure, sand and dust (it supports MIL STD 810G standards and has IP67 Ingress Protection).

Thanks to the integrated GNSS module, the Apco 3710 can detect its current location depending on the received signals from GPS, GLONASS and GALILEO satellites. In addition, radio users can send their locations – manually or automatically – in all digital operation modes. Bluetooth capability supports peripheral accessories.

The Apco 3710 is part of Aselsan’s broad public safety and mission critical communications systems portfolio, which includes radios, repeaters, and tethered drone mobile relay systems, amongst others.

Aselsan South Africa was established as a branch of the Turkish company in 2011 after Aselsan had acquired a local engineering firm which it had contracted to develop high end electro-optical systems for airborne military use. The South African division subsequently designed and produced high performance airborne thermal imagers, multi-spectral airborne sensors, in-flight boresighting systems and targeting electro optical payloads for airborne applications.

Aselsan sees South Africa’s strategic position as serving as a gateway to the African continent, and coupled with its size, economic influence, and advanced infrastructure, makes it an ideal base for expanding its presence across the region.

Aselsan specialises in tactical military radios, electronic warfare, avionic modernisation and defence electronic systems, primarily for the Turkish Armed Forces, but exports account for a substantial amount of revenue. Its business divisions are involved in things like radar, satellites, cyber security, air and missile defence, land weapons systems, electro-optical systems, traffic automation and transportation.

24 Jul 25. Global: Information stealer resurgence underscores raised security, data-theft risks to businesses. On 22 July, the cyber security company Trend Micro reported that operators of the ‘Lumma Stealer’ malware have resumed operations following a law enforcement takedown in May. Law enforcement had reportedly blocked around 2,300 malicious domains alongside infecting its control panel to disrupt marketplace operations. However, Lumma operators started restoring infrastructure in the weeks following the takedown, showcasing the actors’ resilience. The new infrastructure uses multiple service providers, including some located in Russia to enhance obfuscation and evade detection. Threat actors have also adopted new infection vectors to distribute the stealer including fraudulent websites, fake cheat codes for online games and social media posts, highlighting the rapid evolution of its tactics. Lumma compromised nearly 400,000 Windows devices worldwide before its takedown, enabling extensive data exfiltration. We assess that this report underscores the increased security and data-theft risks to entities as Lumma operations will likely continue to grow in the short-to-medium term. (Source: Sibylline)

23 Jul 25. Global: Exploitation of software vulnerabilities will elevate security risks from Chinese actors. Earlier on 23 July, several international news outlets reported that three Chinese state-sponsored groups (‘Linen Typhoon’, ‘Violet Typhoon’ and ‘Storm-2603’) have been exploiting two software vulnerabilities (CVE-2025-49706 and CVE-2025-49704) to infiltrate systems since at least early July. The vulnerabilities affect on-premises Microsoft SharePoint servers and enable threat actors to bypass authentication processes and execute remote commands on compromised systems. A scan of more than 23,000 SharePoint servers worldwide revealed that approximately 400 systems (including government agencies in the US and Spain) had been compromised, underscoring the potential scale of the infection. There is a realistic possibility that the groups have sought to steal user credentials and cryptographic keys during the breaches, increasing the risk of follow-on attacks in the short term. Microsoft released a third patch on 21 July to address the vulnerabilities, highlighting the importance of effective patch management policies. We assess that this will elevate security risks in the short-to-medium term amid the continued development of China’s cyber strategy. (Source: Sibylline)

 

22 Jul 25. Italy purchases two L3Harris EA-37B electronic attack aircraft. Italy has purchased two L3Harris EA-37B Compass Call electronic attack (EA) aircraft for USD300 m, the company announced on 21 July. In October 2024, the US Department of State announced that it had cleared Italy to purchase an undisclosed number of EA-37Bs via the Foreign Military Sales process for USD600 m. Italy is the first foreign country approved to operate the aircraft. It is unclear whether its aircraft will be equipped with the Compass Call Baseline 4 (Systemwide Open Reconfigurable Dynamic Architecture: SWORD-A) electronic systems the US Air Force (USAF) uses or Italy will use a bespoke configuration. The EA-37B is based on the Gulfstream G550 platform. The G550, although designed as a business jet, is often modified by armed forces for special missions – particularly for VIP transport and intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR). The Italian Air Force operates two Gulfstream G550s with identical structural modifications – the prominent ‘cheeks’ on either side of the fuselage and bulbous tail cone – equipped with Elta Systems EL/W‐2085 radars to perform airborne early warning (AEW) missions. The service is also acquiring two G550-based Joint Airborne Multisensor Multimission System (JAMMS) aircraft from L3Harris, intended for passive electronic intelligence missions. Once sourced from the used aircraft market – the G550 is no longer in production – the aircraft enter Gulfstream’s Savannah, Georgia, factory for structural modifications and are then sent to L3Harris’s Waco, Texas, facility for installation of the BAE Systems-built mission equipment.

21 Jul 25. Africa: Cyber attack highlights elevated security risks from Chinese state-sponsored groups. Earlier on 21 July, the cyber security company Kaspersky reported that the Chinese state-sponsored group ‘APT41’ targeted government services across the Africa region in a cyber operation. The group likely compromised a user account on an unprotected device to infiltrate targeted systems; however, the initial attack vector is currently unclear. The group then escalated privileges by hijacking two administrative accounts, established communication with command-and-control (C2) infrastructure and downloaded the penetration testing tool Cobalt Strike to maintain persistence. APT41 deployed multiple information stealers to steal credentials, email and chat messages and other sensitive information as well as financial data. The group typically conducts both cyber espionage and financially motivated operations to bolster its resources. Africa has typically been one of the regions least targeted by APT41’s cyber operations. We assess that this report highlights elevated security risks to Africa-based government entities amid possible target expansion. (Source: Sibylline)

 

22 Jul 25. Kratos and Intelsat Successfully Demo 5G NTN Over GEO. Over-the-air testing validates satellite’s role in delivering end-to-end 5G services. Kratos Defense & Security Solutions, Inc. (Nasdaq: KTOS), a technology company in Defense, National Security and Global Markets, today announced the successful demonstration of an end-to-end 5G-NTN network that combines the Kratos OpenSpace® software-defined satellite ground system with Intelsat’s space and ground network, including its cloud-native, virtualized 5G core. This event represents a key milestone towards the seamless extension of terrestrial 5G networks with satellite technology, providing critical validation of satellite’s role in the delivery of ubiquitous 5G services. The Third Generation Partnership Program (3GPP) incorporated Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTNs) into its 5G specifications with 3GPP Release 17, paving the way for the seamless extension of 5G services beyond terrestrial limits. Both Kratos and Intelsat are leading the market in 5G-NTN adoption; Kratos is working with key industry partners to develop cloud native 5G-NTN solutions for satellite operators, while Intelsat is focused on building a multi-layer, next-generation software-defined network. Kratos and its partner Radisys announced last year their plans to develop a satellite base station – a 5G NTN gNodeB — delivered completely as cloud-native software, to be deployed as part of the OpenSpace® system. The over-the-air (OTA) demo conducted by Kratos and Intelsat validated that joint solution, leveraging it to orchestrate a 5G NR-NTN cell that was activated over Intelsat’s Galaxy 19 Ku-band GEO satellite. Multiple User Equipment (UE) emulators from partner VIAVI Solutions successfully attached and established PDU) traffic flows from different locations within the 5G-NTN cell, demonstrating that any standards-compliant terminal can access the 5G network on a satellite connection. This brings the industry closer to truly ubiquitous broadband services for all customers, regardless of location.

“This demonstration represents a significant milestone in both companies’ progress in advancing ubiquitous 5G connectivity that spans both terrestrial and space networks,” said Greg Quiggle, Senior Vice President of Product Management at Kratos. “This remarkable technical accomplishment demonstrates the value of the OpenSpace virtual ground system in enabling that connectivity.”

5G-NTN opens the door to a broad range of new communications services in markets unserved or underserved by terrestrial connectivity alone. It paves the way for seamless service delivery across satellite orbits, satellite operators and for mainstreaming satellite-enabled services seamlessly across the global web of terrestrial communications networks. Kratos’ OpenSpace platform will play a key role in that revolution by bringing the dynamic software-defined networking principles that are common in today’s terrestrial networks to the legacy satellite environment and leveraging a common, standards-based architecture for the delivery of global 5G services with terrestrial network partners.

21 Jul 25. Anduril wins $100m deal to build US Army’s next-gen C2 ecosystem. The U.S. Army has picked Anduril to be the lead integrator to build its next-generation command-and-control prototype, or C2, awarding the tech company a $99.6m contract to deliver it in less than a year, according to statements from the service and company. The prototype architecture will consist of “integrated and scalable” C2 capabilities using hardware, software and applications through a common data layer, the Army stated in a July 18 announcement. The Army’s effort to overhaul its command-and-control ecosystem, dubbed Next-Generation C2, is one of the top priorities for Army modernization — if not the highest. The capability will be delivered to the 4th Infantry Division, the service said. The prototype will be “integrated onto compute nodes aboard multiple different types of mechanized vehicles” throughout the Division immediately upon award of the contract, Anduril noted, and will be continuously developed working directly with soldiers. The Army’s command-and-control architecture, which enables commanders to plan, decide and execute missions, was cobbled together over 20 years during the Global War on Terror. Most warfighting functions used separate stove-piped systems, amounting to a total of 17 programs of record. Army Chief of Staff Gen. Randy George recognized getting command-and-control right was imperative to future battlefield success and decided to embark on a program to fix the service’s C2 capabilities to avoid operational disruption while creating the necessary clean-sheet system from scratch. The Army’s effort to overhaul its command-and-control ecosystem, dubbed Next-Generation C2, is one of the top priorities for Army modernization — if not the highest. Roughly 18 months ago, at the National Training Center at Fort Irwin, California, soldiers at the Army’s experimentation event Project Convergence and industry partners, including Anduril, demonstrated a proof-of-concept at the unclassified level for what a Next-Generation C2 system, or NGC2, might look like.

The Army established the NGC2 program office in April 2025.

“NGC2 is not just a capability. It’s a blueprint for how we’ll deliver future Army systems,” Gen. James Rainey, Army Futures Command commander, said in the service’s statement. “This award reflects a fundamentally different relationship with industry, built on shared purpose, speed, and trust. By co-developing with our industry partners and putting soldiers at the center of design, we’re delivering what they need — faster, more integrated, and ready for the fight.”

Anduril will, over the next 11 months, come together with other industry partners like Palantir, Striveworks, Govini, Instant Connect Enterprise (ICE), Research Innovations, Inc. (RII) and Microsoft, the company listed in a statement.

“For NGC2, Anduril and its partners will create an ecosystem that can rapidly integrate a range of technologies into a singular architecture so that soldiers can access various kinds of compute, communications and information processing capabilities all at once,” the company describes. “Time sensitive decisions will be faster and soldiers will be more connected across Corps to Company.” (Source: Defense News)

 

18 Jul 25. Cyber Update Key points

  • The discovery of a new multi-stage social engineering attack technique highlights heightened security risks stemming from legitimate artificial intelligence platforms.
  • A new social engineering technique (‘FileFix’) underscores the increased security risks to global businesses from the ransomware group ‘Interlock,’ see our Technical analysis below.
  • A newly reported cyber operation will sustain security risks to global Android mobile users.
  • Reports of a sophisticated cyber operation will heighten security, financial and reputational risks to Hong Kong-based financial institutions, see our Technical analysis below.
  • The targeting of the US National Guard in a cyber operation highlights long-term security and cyber espionage risks from the Chinese state-sponsored group ‘Salt Typhoon’

Technical analysis of weekly stories

Unnamed threat actors are conducting a covert, highly sophisticated cyber operation against financial institutions in Hong Kong. The operation starts with spear phishing emails (impersonating financial institutions) to trick victims into opening an enclosed .RAR archive disguised as an invoice. The archive emulates a legitimate Word document to enhance legitimacy and executes a loader malware (‘SquidLoader’) onto compromised systems upon opening. SquidLoader then establishes communication with command-and-control (C2) infrastructure, enables persistent access to compromised systems by employing ‘Cobalt Strike’ and locates unresolved Windows application programming interfaces (APIs) to aid detection evasion and remote code execution. The malware displays a fake error message to solicit user interaction and impede automated malware analysis, in addition to using a URL that mimics legitimate services (including Kubernetes) to conceal malicious traffic. It also performs regular checks to delete itself from compromised systems if detected by security mechanisms and boasts several other anti-analysis techniques, further highlighting SquidLoader’s sophistication. Several campaign instances have also been identified in Australia and Singapore, underscoring the possible expansion of this campaign.

The ransomware group Interlock is using a new social engineering technique (‘FileFix’) to deploy a PHP variant of its custom remote access trojan (RAT). Interlock distributes compromised websites to infiltrate targeted systems by displaying overlays and/or browser updated prompts via a web injector (‘KongTuke’). This tricks users into copying malicious PowerShell code onto the clipboard before unknowingly executing the code by pasting the file path into File Explorer. The code ultimately deploys the RAT onto systems, allowing the group to collect and exfiltrate sensitive data before deploying the ransomware. The malware exploits the legitimate Cloudflare Tunnel service to conceal C2 infrastructure, alongside using legitimate user interface (UI) services (such as File Explorer) to enhance legitimacy and prolong detection evasion. The RAT also enables interactive communication with C2 infrastructure to allow remote command execution, highlighting Interlock’s sophistication. FileFix is the newest iteration of another less stealthy attack technique (‘ClickFix’), showcasing the continued evolution of ransomware operations.

Non-exhaustive recommendations to mitigate against these threats include:

  • Monitor devices and networks for suspicious activity
  • Add available Indicators-of-Compromise (IoCs) to your organisation’s security systems to detect potentially malicious samples on the network; configure firewalls to block outbound communications to malicious IP addresses associated with any known malware
  • Adopt behaviour-based end-point detection and response (EDR) solutions, prioritising the detection of the initial stages of a compromise
  • Conduct cyber hygiene awareness courses for users, enabling them to recognise and report phishing and other types of social engineering (Source: Sibylline)
