Electromagnetic Threat Modeling Workshop by Tonex
Electromagnetic Threat Modeling Workshop by Tonex gives professionals a structured way to examine how electromagnetic conditions, intentional interference, and system-level weaknesses can affect mission performance across radar, communications, GNSS, UAS, and sensor-driven environments.
Over two days, participants explore how to identify threat sources, map attack surfaces, evaluate operational dependencies, and build practical threat models that support resilient engineering and security planning. The workshop connects technical risk analysis with real-world operational concerns, helping teams think clearly about denial, degradation, deception, and disruption in contested electromagnetic settings.
It also highlights how electromagnetic exposure can create cybersecurity consequences when signal manipulation affects trust, timing, control, or data integrity. For modern connected platforms, cybersecurity depends not only on software and networks but also on protecting the electromagnetic pathways that systems rely on. Stronger electromagnetic threat modeling improves both mission assurance and cybersecurity readiness.

Electromagnetic conditions are no longer just an engineering concern. They shape how systems perform, how missions succeed, and how security teams evaluate trust in data, timing, sensing, and control. A professional understanding of electromagnetic threat modeling helps organizations move beyond isolated technical fixes and toward a more complete view of system resilience. This workshop is designed for teams that need to connect RF realities with modern operational risk, especially where mission assurance and security planning must work together.
Participants gain a disciplined way to assess how hostile emitters, unintentional interference, environmental complexity, and system interdependence can create cascading effects. The workshop also supports clearer communication between engineering, operational, and cybersecurity stakeholders by giving them a common framework for discussing threats, dependencies, consequences, and priorities. That shared view is valuable in defense, aerospace, infrastructure, and other high-consequence environments where electromagnetic disruption can undermine trusted operations.
