No, hackers can’t ‘take control of Trident’

A recent report has suggested that Trident carrying submarines could be hacked, leading to a nuclear war. However, the report fails to give much detail and appears to gloss over key details.

The report was produced by the British American Security Information Council (BASIC), a think tank based in London which aims to promote nuclear disarmament. Their paper reviews the ‘growing potential for cyber-attack’ on the UK’s operational fleet of Vanguard class submarines armed with Trident II D-5 ballistic missiles.
