For more than a decade, technological demands have led to the emergence of a plethora of devices controllable via wired or wireless communications, collectively termed as Network of Things (NoTs). However, security of NoT has not kept pace with the rapid advances in innovation and deployment of NoT devices, thus creating significant risks to all associated information assets. Preference of having fast and cost-effective technological solutions to conduct military operations by nation states and their governments globallyhaskept cybersecurity goals at lesser priority. Hence, commercial NoT solutions are being adoptedwithout considering their inherent security architectures, thus risking reliability and efficacy of military operations. This paper explores the emerging concept of NoTs in military systems conferring their efficacy and presents various threats that can easily compromise military networks. The paper stresses the need for improving security posture when NoTs are employed within military systems and proposes measures to address the ever-evolving cyber security challenges in NoTs.
