Nowadays, in Cyberspace there is a burst of information that
everyone has access. However, apart from the advantages the
Internet offers, it also hides numerous dangers for both people and
nations. Cyberspace has a dark side, including terrorism, bullying,
and other types of violence. Cyberwarfare is a kind of virtual war
that causes the same destruction that a physical war would also do.
A hybrid threat is an umbrella term, encompassing a wide variety of
existing adverse circumstances and actions, such as terrorism,
migration, piracy, corruption, ethnic conflict etc and is not
exclusively a tool of asymmetric or non-state actors, but can be
applied by state and non-state actors alike. ‘Cyber-conflict’
and ‘cyber-war’ serve as examples of the use of new
technologies within the scope of hybrid threats. Cyber-war
basically refers to a sustained computer-based cyber-attack by a
state against the IT infrastructure of a target state. On the other
hand cyber-security is a major factor that shapes productivity and
efficiency of the modern industry in both technical and economic
terms. The book discusses and analyses current posture of
cyberterrorism, cyberwarfare, and hybrid threats, sector specific
cyber-attacks that have the form of cyberterrorism and presents the
recent actions that EU, USA and other Nations have taken in order
to strengthen their systems against such attacks. There has never
been a higher risk of a major catastrophe as a result of the rise
in offensive cyber activity, particularly the possibility of
cyber-physical strikes against critical services. Recent
cyber-attacks against critical infrastructures along with the
continuous migration crisis have been the main driving forces that
led to the decision to publish this book.
