Executive Summary
The 2020 Summer Olympic Games, also known as Tokyo 2020, are scheduled to be held from July 23, 2021, to August 8, 2021, in Tokyo, Japan. Originally scheduled to take place in 2020, the event was postponed as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Although Tokyo 2020 faces unique challenges, and its organizers’ creativity and resiliency are being put to the test, no credible physical or cybersecurity-related threats associated with the upcoming Olympic events were identified as of the writing of this report. Nevertheless, concerns over the possible impact of ransomware attacks or nation-state activities on the Games persist.
