Ermes Cyber Security positions browser and identity protection as a frontline control for targeted attacks. Its core proposition is to harden the “last mile” where users interact with the web, rather than relying only on perimeter controls. That design choice is strategically relevant because modern military and dual-use operations depend on distributed, identity-centric digital work.
Within European security policy, cyber resilience is treated as a prerequisite for deterrence and crisis response, not a purely technical hygiene factor. In parallel, EU industrial instruments increasingly embed sovereignty, control, and supply-chain constraints into funding and procurement mechanisms.
