Weapons of Mass Disruption: Cyber War in the Current Global Environment: NSDM
Summary:
The age of cyber war is here, the first shots fired. Lecture explores features, strategies, weapons, geopolitics. Cyber weapons now focus more on disruption than on destruction; which may be worse.
Description:
The American 2016 Presidential Election, the Brexit vote, and the 2017 French Presidential elections all share one thing in common: they were the target of cyber attacks from an external actor whose ultimate motives are “unknown.” Using a framework and couched in the Clausewitzian concept of fog of war, this lecture examines the current situation in terms of cyber war and its import on global politics. Unlike earlier predictions of a “Cyber Pearl Harbor,” current cyber capacity is now focusing more on disruption than on destruction; which may be more of a threat in the long run. The features of cyber war in this near future and its strategies are explored by Dr. Craig Greathouse, Professor of Political Science, University of North Georgia where he specializes in the European Union, International Relations Theory, and Security and Defense Policy, speaking on the NSDMG staff.
