Cyber Strategy: The Evolving Character of Power and Coercion
This book examines how states integrate cyber capabilities with other instruments of power to achieve foreign policy outcomes. Given North Korea’s use of cyber intrusions to threaten the international community and extort funds for its elites, Chinese espionage and the theft of government records through the Office of Personal Management (OPM) hack, and the Russian hack on the 2016 US election, this book is a timely contribution to debates about …
How We Stopped Worrying about Cyber Doom and Started Collecting Data
Moderate and measured takes on cyber security threats are swamped by the recent flood of research and policy positions in the cyber research field offering hyperbolic perspectives based on limited observations. This skewed perspective suggests constant cyber disasters that are confronting humanity constantly. The general tone of the debate argues that cyber war is already upon us and our future will only witness more cyber doom. However, these hy…
The Impact of Cyber Conflict on International Interactions
Analysts suggest that the rise of the cyber domain of combat has led to a revolution in military affairs and have greatly changed how society interacts with the Internet. The structure and content of interactions on the battlefield have supposedly changed in light of this development. In the rush to note the changing face of conflict, few scholars have actually examined the impact of cyber conflict on foreign policy relationships. Here we use wee…
Cyber War Versus Cyber Realities: Cyber Conflict in the International System
"In 2011, the United States government declared a cyber attack as equal to an act of war, punishable with conventional military means. Cyber operations, cyber crime, and other forms of cyber activities directed by one state against another are now considered part of the normal relations range of combat and conflict, and the rising fear of cyber conflict has brought about a reorientation of military affairs. What is the reality of this threat? Is …
Russia's Coercive Diplomacy: Energy, Cyber, and Maritime Policy as New Sources of Power
"Russia's Coercive Diplomacy offers a highly original exploration of Russia's uses of power as it exerts its influence in a post-Soviet era. Russia's place in the world as a powerful regional actor can no longer be denied, and this study focuses on how its developing sources of power are utilized in a modern context. Valeriano and Maness challenge assumptions about the ways in which power is exerted, exploring Russia's utilization of coercive dip…
The dynamics of cyber conflict between rival antagonists, 2001-11
Much discussion of the concept of cyberwar, cyber conflict, and the changing dynamic of future security interactions is founded upon the study of what could be, conjured through spectacular flights of the imagination. The goal of this research article is to exhaustively collect information on cyber interactions between rival states in the last decade so that we can delineate the patterns of cyber conflict as reflected by evidence at the internati…
