Securing Indo-Pacific Submarine Cable Networks: Options for Australia-India Cooperation

Описание: The Australia India Institute hosted a webinar to launch its new report 'Securing Indo-Pacific Submarine Cable Networks: Options for Australia-India Cooperation' on Monday, December 1.

Submarine cable networks are integral to modern society as the backbone of digital information flows. These critical infrastructure networks, which carry approximately 99% of data traffic globally, are constantly evolving, expanding and being reconfigured. However, as geopolitical tensions rise globally, submarine cable networks are increasingly contested.

This report, Securing Indo-Pacific Submarine Cable Networks: Options for Australia-India Cooperation, is intended to inform policymakers and industry leaders in both nations and to guide Australia’s and India’s approach to submarine cable security.
