GPS jamming and spoofing have shifted from academic exercises to widespread operational threats. Attackers can now spoof location signals at scale rather than in isolated lab conditions. GPS underpins critical infrastructure far beyond consumer navigation—financial networks rely on it for time-stamping transactions, power grids use it for synchronization, autonomous vehicles depend on it for positioning. Large-scale spoofing attacks create cascade vulnerabilities across these systems. Countermeasures lag as connectivity deepens across industrial systems.
