DUAL-USE CYBERSPACE TECHNOLOGIES
When civil and military share the same code
Strategic keys to understanding the true scope of dual capabilities in cyberspace.
Can Europe maintain its autonomy if it does not protect the technologies that underpin its security, industry and defence?
In this new article, Antonio Villalón, Security Director at S2GRUPO, analyses the role of dual-use technologies as a critical axis in an environment where the civil and military spheres are increasingly intertwined.
These capabilities not only generate operational and economic advantages, but also condition the international position of states and their room for manoeuvre vis-à-vis third parties.
This is a necessary reflection for cybersecurity managers, regulators, public decision-makers and technology sector leaders who seek to anticipate a scenario where the protection of these technologies will be as important as their development.

A NEW FRONTIER FOR DIGITAL DEFENCE
Is defending yourself within your digital perimeter enough?
Should cybersecurity look beyond its traditional walls to anticipate threats? What ethical and legal implications would this entail?

Threats no longer wait at the door; they brew in the least visible corners of cyberspace, beyond your direct control. Anticipation is the key that makes the difference.
In this context, S2GRUPO presents an analysis of a trend in cybersecurity, Outbound Cyberspace Defense (OCD). An approach that proposes extending surveillance and response capabilities beyond the traditional perimeter. Observe the adversary before they act and understand the terrain where threats move.
Far from proposing it as a specific practice, the aim is to provide a knowledge base for discussing the technical, strategic and regulatory implications of this type of approach, as well as its posiible fit within existing cybersecurity frameworks.
Led by Antonio Villalón, Security Director at S2GRUPO, this document delves into the technical, strategic and regulatory implications of this new frontier in digital defence.
Should we adopt this new form of cybersecurity? What are the ethical and legal implications of OCD?
Dual capability, total commitment
Dual-use technologies are no longer the exception. Their impact affects the security, economy and operational autonomy of states.
Security by design
Regulating and protecting these technologies is essential. Their strategic value makes them a priority target for malicious actors and rival powers.
Governing the critical
In a volatile geopolitical context, those who do not control their cyber capabilities are dependent on those who do. Technological governance is no longer optional.
What will you find in this analysis?
What we understand today by dual-use technology (beyond the classic definition).
How its development drives technological sovereignty, innovation, and industrial resilience.
Why protecting them – both legally and technically – is a atpriority for Europe.
