From May 17 to 21, U.S. cyber defenders from the Information Defense Company, Multi‑Domain Command – Europe, and the Maryland Army National Guard’s 169th Cyber Protection Team conducted training at Cyber Range 14 in Tallinn, Estonia. The exercise, part of the annual Sword 26 event, involved a realistic scenario in which the Estonian Defense Forces acted as the red team, attempting to breach simulated power and rail networks. Blue team members worked to identify suspicious activity, investigate anomalies, and secure vulnerabilities before exploitation. The training emphasized cooperation with allies and the importance of defending shared digital systems that support military operations and civilian life. The exercise highlighted the role of cyber defense in NATO’s Eastern Flank Deterrence Initiative and reinforced the need for joint preparedness.
