ideologies, or beliefs that exist in the real world, translate in cyberspace. For instance, Richard Clarke asserts that cyber war has already started, which sounds like a realist view. Conversely, Thomas Rid defends that cyber war will never occur, which appears very idealist. Others, like Martin Libicki argue that the current focus and fantasy about this topic is merely a temporary craze and that cyberspace is not even a war-fighting domain. Lastly, some pragmatics say that the cyber realm…

The phrase “cyberspace” was defining the many new concepts that were developing. The phrase is used to characterize anything associated with the Internet and the internet perception.

units and caused several billions in damage. The US was not successfully able to link the attack to Al Qaeda who planned 9/11. But they were rumors that it was intentionally released that the warm was released after a week of 9/11 to increase the percentages of damages caused to the US during the recovery stage. Since after the continuous attacks on the USA, it has officially declared a global war against cyber terrorism. Even though the first cyber terrorism attack has started with the Siberian…

geographies, space and cyberspace, and we are becoming ever more dependent upon them both. Thus far, at least, we have not taken space or cyber system vulnerability as seriously as we shall have to. It is a law of war: The greater the dependency on a capability, the higher the payoff to an enemy who can lessen its utility, in effect turning our strength into a weakness.[footnoteRef:1] [1: Colin S. Gray, "The 21st Century Security Environment and the Future of War," Parameters 38, no. 4…

There are a large number of individual components within cyberspace to be managed entirely by the USIC, and this naturally leads to situations where cyber warfare can be disseminated that much more easily. This concept is one that is mentioned by another source, which finds that there is a sort of postmodernist terrorism, which exceeds the previous examples that existed within terrorism, which were focused much more on affiliation within a specific organization, and can affect change directly,…

The compositional dichotomy of virtual space creates a dynamic that, among other things, can cause states to lack a unified language and vision of virtual warfare. A large part of this division is driven from their divergent interests and relative power. An anecdote of this was showcased at the Budapest Conference on Cyberspace (2012) as well as the World Conference on International Telecommunications in Dubai (2012), when both conferences were back-to-back episodes of continual disagreements…

(U) This is an analysis of how the Revolutionary People's Liberation Front (DHKP-C) can conduct cyber attacks on the United States or US interests.

This organization has ran a violent campaign for more than thirty years. DHKP-C has adopted some tactics used by Al-qaeda to get more attention from the populace. The…

countless resources, time, and possibly civilian lives. Furthermore, strikes on these systems could lead to the death or injury of members in the Coast Guard or NMS, equipment damage, or economic damage. Therefore, the Coast Guard intelligence requirement of cyber-security and cyber operations is crucial to the Coast Guard’s survival. Only one opening in a cyber system can lead to a failure, making it crucial to secure these systems. The Coast Guard can combat cyber-attacks by consistently…

plants and elsewhere [11, 9, 10, 12, 13]. In the US, the number of attacks against ICS and SCADA systems used in energy and public water supply are reported to be increasing yearly [14]. CI systems may be especially attractive to exploitation by advanced persistent threats (APT), which are distinguished from common cyber attack by stealthiness, a longer time horizon and ambitious objectives [15]. APT are particularly difficult to defend against, because of the patience, organization, and…
