National security is about a country's ability to protect its borders, infrastructure and critical systems from threats that are digital, fast-moving and hard to anticipate. We take a look at the technology behind national security capabilities now and for the future, and what Malaysia needs to build long-term resilience in an increasingly uncertain world.

Topics covered: 

• How drones, cyberattacks and system integration needs have changed what governments are prioritising when it comes to security.

• Whether a country can call itself sovereign if it still depends on someone else to maintain, upgrade or support its critical systems.

• What AI genuinely solves in cybersecurity today, and where its limits are.
