I will read the articles later, but as overview, we learned about:

I'm rather sad that I've never seen these ideas outside of the aerospace

I see the results all the time. Like when someone can use a radio to hack into a
car computer via the keyless door locks, and take over the steering and braking
system. Even worse, when engineers discuss that, it never occurs to them that
critical systems should be electrically separate from the infotainment system
and anything that receives wireless data. They just talk about "fixing the bug".
BTW, people who run spy networks figured this out long ago. It's all divided up
by "need to know" rules and cells. Any spy captured and tortured can only give
up minimal information, not something that will allow the enemy to roll up the
entire network.
