This book introduces policy, government, and security professionals
to the concept of "information warfare," covering its evolution
over the last decade and its developments among such economic and
political giants as China, Russia, Japan, India, and Singapore. The
text describes various conceptions of information warfare, along
with how they function in military, diplomatic, political, and
economic contexts. Recent notable cyber attacks are analyzed, the
challenges faced by countries who fail to secure their cyberspace
(Japan, the US, etc.) are enumerated, and ways to distinguish
between cybercrime, cyberwarfare, and cyberterrrorism are
discussed.
The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic has had an undeniable impact on cybercrime.
The initial crisis quickly became a global catastrophe with
multiple consequences in economics, health, and political and
social fields. This book explores how this global emergency has
influenced cybercrime. Indeed, since feeding off new
vulnerabilities, thanks to the effects of the pandemic crisis in
various states around the world, cybercrime has increased and
evolved. In 2020, the world was already dealing with numerous
tensions and the effects of the global crisis have therefore only
tended to exacerbate the issues that relate to cybercrime. For
example, radicalization and identity theft has found an environment
in which they thrive: the Internet. Criminals have been able to
adapt their modus operandi, their targets and their attack vectors.
However, on the plus side, the response of law enforcement and
public authorities, in terms of the legal, policing and policy side
of cybercrime, has also been adapted in order to better combat the
increase in this phenomenon.
Today, cyber security, cyber defense, information warfare and cyber
warfare issues are among the most relevant topics both at the
national and international level. All the major states of the world
are facing cyber threats and trying to understand how cyberspace
could be used to increase power. Through an empirical, conceptual
and theoretical approach, Cyber Conflict has been written by
researchers and experts in the fields of cyber security, cyber
defense and information warfare. It aims to analyze the processes
of information warfare and cyber warfare through historical,
operational and strategic perspectives of cyber attack. It is
original in its delivery because of its multidisciplinary approach
within an international framework, with studies dedicated to
different states – Canada, Cuba, France, Greece, Italy, Japan,
Singapore, Slovenia and South Africa – describing the state’s
application of information warfare principles both in terms of
global development and “local” usage and examples. Contents 1.
