The UK and Nato will trial an electronic warfare capability later this month.

The system will be trialled at the Coalition Warrior Interoperability Demonstration – an annual global exercise that involves more than 26 countries around the world in trialling new military capabilities.

Security vendor Symantec will demonstrate a cyberintelligence, network defence and command and control system.

As well as securing networks, the system will pull together threat and incident data to be available to military commanders.
