Results of the Research: The increasing adoption of Fintech also presents challenges to national security digital defense strategies. Threats to data security, cyberattacks, and misuse of financial technology can jeopardize national financial infrastructure, threaten the stability of the financial system, and pose risks to national security. Thus, concerted efforts from governments, financial institutions, and Fintech companies are required to enhance digital defense. Governments need to implement stringent regulations to safeguard Fintech user data and privacy and closely supervise Fintech operations to mitigate the risks of financial technology misuse. Collaboration between governments, financial institutions, and Fintech companies in sharing security intelligence is essential to tackle increasingly complex and organized threats. Additionally, investing in advanced security technology, raising user awareness about security, and strengthening oversight of critical infrastructure are crucial steps in digital defense strategies.
