Making sure there are shared standards, and that systems will work with systems, will be critical to success, officials said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cOne of the big challenges when we go into this new phase of disruptive technologies is how do you keep all allies on the same hymn sheet when it comes down to communicating with each other, using the same technology, being interoperable,\u201d David van Weel, NATO assistant secretary general for emerging security challenges, <a
