How did we coordinate activities across multiple sites and suppliers before the internet?

Basically, I don't think enough people are seriously questioning the costs vs benefits of using the internet while dealing with sensitive data. You should assume that basically anything which touches an internet-connected device will eventually be stolen, and plan accordingly.

Before the Internet, aircraft designs were far simpler and thus it was feasible to do the work at only a few sites. The JSF / F-35 program then went even further by intentionally spreading work across many US Congressional districts plus several allied countries in order to make it politically impossible to cancel.
