Defense wants more cyberpower after difficult recovery due to attack: external mail traffic only now activated

Only a month after a cyber attack on the army, the external mail traffic was reactivated. A leak was discovered worldwide in December in Apache’s widely used software Log4j, which paralyzed part of the activities at the ministry. But the recovery is now much more difficult than expected. Until this week, looking up something on the internet was impossible for military personnel. “We want to create a Cyber ​​Component as the fifth pillar of Defence”, says the cabinet of Defense Minister Ludivine Dedonder (PS).
