Denmark's End of Innocence Report

Description

Beyond the inventory of risks, this report marks a major doctrinal rupture in Scandinavian intelligence culture. Long an adherent of silence, Denmark is here undergoing its transformation towards « strategic transparency, » aligning with the model of Wehrhafte Demokratie (defensive democracy) dear to neighboring Germany. The logic is implacable: facing hybrid warfare—disinformation, cyberattacks, sabotage—secrecy is no longer a shield, but a vulnerability. By publicly naming the adversary and detailing their methods, Copenhagen seeks to transform every citizen and business leader into a link in the national security chain. It is no longer up to the State alone to protect society, but up to society to develop its own immune resilience. By breaking the seal of secrecy, Danish services send a clear message to Moscow and Beijing: we know what you are doing, and from now on, our population knows it too. It is the end of innocence, but it is the beginning of the democratic counter-attack.
