Results: Key findings indicate that digital sovereignty, climate-induced resource scarcity, the paradox of globalization, and rapid socio-technological change constitute primary threats. Conclusion: The future of economic security depends on transitioning from a reactive defense model to a proactive adaptive system based on human capital, digital infrastructure, and climate resilience.
