About this report
Media and Cognitive Resilience Tools address a structural vulnerability that increasingly shapes military effectiveness: the erosion of decision integrity and operational legitimacy when adversaries contest the information environment through coordinated manipulation.
Modern competitors rarely rely solely on kinetic confrontation. Instead, they systematically employ disinformation, foreign information manipulation, narrative distortion, impersonation, and AI-generated media to shape perceptions, disrupt political cohesion, and constrain military freedom of action.
