The Combined Cyber Information Warfare Operational Group (Nahuatl: Cepan Olochtli Ciberiximachocayaoyotl Tequitiliztli, COCT) is a cyberwarfare and signals intelligence agency in Zacapican and Pulacan. Tasked during it
The COCT is considered to be a core component of the Zacapine-Pulatec cooperation umbrella known as the Union State (Cetliliztli Tlatoloyan).
History
At the dawn of the Internet age, cybersecurity in both Pulacan and Zacapican was often underfunded and poorly-researched. Governments were slow to react to increasingly large threats as viruses and hacking became widespread in the 1990s. Though one of the first documented viruses on the Nahuatl Internet wreaked havoc in 1989, it was not until 1994 that the Pulatec United Legislative Assembly gave clear delineations to government agencies regarding powers of enforcement with cybercrime laws. In Zacapican, X. In both countries, government cybersecurity resources were simply spread too thin, and many private individuals and firms were left to fill the gaps.
During Pulacan's 1999 snap elections, a series of cybercrimes targeting the finances of then-candidate Moctezuma Tshireletso and the Nguzo Party highlighted the need for improved cyberdefense at the government level At this time, Zacapican had been exploring cybersecurity initiatives through Y. After Nguzo formed a coalition government with the technocratic United in Humanity party, the improvement of Pulacan's government cybersecurity infrastructure was made a priority. As Internet infrastructure is a government-provided utility in Pulacan, Tshireletso established that malware and other forms of cyberattack were to be treated as damaging exploits on government infrastructure. In order to supplement the increased resources towards cyberdefense, Tshireletso proposed the creation of a joint network security agency to the government of Zacapican in May of 2001. After some negotiations, the Combined Cyber Information Warfare Operational Group was formed on March 9th, 2002.
Initially, COCT was intended as a purely defensive cybersecurity agency. Relevant military and civil agencies from both nations were to share known malware and threat data, standardize security infrastructure, and to ensure the continued operation of networked state infrastructure like nuclear power stations and emergency dispatch centers. As the landscape evolved surrounding cybersecurity and acts of cyberwarfare became increasingly prevalent in the late 2000s and early 2010s, however, concerns began to grow about Zacapican and Pulacan maintaining military parity with other nations that were investing in exploring offensive cybernetic capabilities. The potential for a numerically small group of hackers to pose an asymmetrical threat to a state's vital infrastructure, both civilian and military, became increasingly apparent during this time. Though exact information is not publicly available, serious efforts to form offensive network groups under the COCT banner likely began around the year 2013.
