ODTN.News is a fictional news platform set within the Operation: Defend the North universe, a high-stakes cybersecurity simulation. All names, organizations, quotes, and events are entirely fictitious or used in a fictional context. Any resemblance to real people, companies, or incidents is purely coincidental, unless reality has decided to imitate art (it happens).

 

This is not real news. It’s part of a narrative experience designed to provoke thought, reflect real-world challenges, immerse you in the ODTN universe, and occasionally trigger a nervous laugh.

 

If you're confused, concerned, or drafting a cease and desist, take a pause — you're still in the simulation. Remember, this is fiction, but the cybersecurity challenges it represents? Very real.
