NATO's Critical Undersea Infrastructure (CUI) Network convened on October 20-21, 2026, in Rostock, Germany, to discuss strategies for enhancing security amid rising hybrid threats. The meeting included NATO experts, infrastructure operators, and representatives from the European Union and partner nations, focusing on data sharing and operational resilience.
The significance of this gathering lies in its aim to bolster cooperation and improve rapid response capabilities. Ambassador Jean-Charles Ellermann-Kingombe emphasized the importance of data for real-time situational awareness, highlighting the network's role in countering hybrid threats, particularly in light of recent attacks on critical infrastructure in Ukraine and NATO Allies.
NATO's CUI Network is set to evolve further with the inclusion of new companies and partners from the Indo-Pacific and the Middle East. The meeting underscored the commitment to face security challenges with confidence and purpose, as noted by ASG Ellermann-Kingombe, who acknowledged Germany's contributions to securing undersea infrastructure.
