Global threat analysis stems from the need to assess risks faced by states and societies not as isolated challenges, but as interconnected dynamics that reinforce one another. In today’s world, threats are no longer confined to conventional warfare; geopolitical tensions, disinformation, cyberattacks, economic fragilities, and climate-induced shocks increasingly overlap. As a result, the concept of security has expanded beyond territorial defense to include energy supply, food security, critical infrastructure, and societal resilience, forming a far broader and more complex framework.

From a more technical perspective, global threats tend to concentrate along three main axes: (1) hard power competition and regional conflicts, (2) technology-driven security risks, and (3) the cascading effects of economic and environmental vulnerabilities. Rising military expenditures worldwide reflect an intensifying search for deterrence and strategic advantage. On the technological front, cyber operations, attacks on critical infrastructure, and information warfare have become force multipliers that amplify traditional threats. Economically, supply chain disruptions, commodity price volatility, and financial tightening interact with geopolitical risks to produce crises that spread more rapidly across borders. Within this complex environment, a state’s success is measured not solely by military strength, but by its capacity for early warning, strategic communication, multi-layered defense, alliance management, and inter-institutional coordination.
