Cyber War and Deterrence

Abstract:

The authors of this paper claim that cyber space now is part of a possible global warfare and as such the necessary measures need to be taken. They try to draw lessons from previous wars into a possible cyber war. The paper suggests forming a strategic framework to address possible cyber attacks that USA can face. It does that by raising and responding to six important questions.
Main message to get out of this paper is that the strategy of US should be explicit to every other nation, strong to deter any possible attack and ready to use physical means if necessary.
