Trump's cyber doctrine targets rivals, boosts tech ties

WASHINGTON: The White House released a “Cyber Strategy for America,” outlining a broad plan to strengthen US cyber defences, counter digital threats from rivals and deepen cooperation with global partners.

The strategy says the United States will work with allies, industry, and government agencies to protect digital networks and maintain technological leadership.

Officials say the goal is to ensure that the United States “remains unrivaled in cyberspace.” The plan calls for unprecedented coordination across government and the private sector to defend networks and protect critical infrastructure.

“Over the past year, the United States has shown the entire world that we have the most powerful, sophisticated, and technologically advanced military on earth ÔÇö and it is not even close,” President Donald Trump wrote in the strategy.

The document stresses that cybersecurity will increasingly depend on partnerships across borders. Washington says it will work with allies and industry to shape global cyber norms and strengthen digital resilience.
