Germany's Defense Minister suggested that the undersea cable severances are likely acts of sabotage, highlighting the vulnerabilities in the West's vital internet infrastructure.
Experts emphasize the urgency of safeguarding subsea cables, noting that 'the attack surface is vast' and current monitoring capabilities are insufficient.
The Baltic Sea incidents illustrate how geopolitical tensions and outdated infrastructure protection raise significant fears of potential attacks by hostile nations.
As reliance on undersea cables grows, the lack of clear ownership and protection efforts opens avenues for possible sabotage from adversarial countries like Russia and China.
