Isti Marta Sukma is an Indonesian writer and interdisciplinary researcher specializing in politics, defense, and technology, with a focus on cyber and technological warfare in the Indo-Pacific region.

Developing techno-realism, my research covers essential topics like national interests, global power theories, counter-terrorism, civil-military integration, the role of technology in politics (cybersecurity, AI, quantum, surveillance systems), maritime security, and political ideology. My main geopolitical scopes are the Indo-Pacific and Central/Eastern Europe (CEE). At present, I am an independent researcher waiting to start my PhD program in Political Science later this year.
