The control of digital spaces in India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh
The consolidation of democracy and the development of stable civil societies depend on informed dialogue and discussion. New laws and interpretations of existing laws are increasingly used to violate the human rights of citizens of India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh. How each state leverages tools of control and repression differs based on state capacity, domestic laws and regulations, and perceived threats to regime stability. This paper questions …
The bitskrieg that was and wasn’t
The Russian war on Ukraine presents a multifaceted landscape for the analysis of the cyber dimensions of contemporary war and their strategic, operational, and tactical impacts. While the long-anticipated disabling and devastating cyber blitzkrieg did not happen at the beginning of the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, the persistent utilization of a variety of cyber tools by both sides in this war points to the hybrid warf…
Forged in the fires of war
Ukraine has always been a plural state comprised of multiple ethnic, linguistic, religious, and regional subcultures. Yet, since 2014 and, in particular, since February 2022, these often-competing identities have been codified under a more overarching identity. The forging of unified plural Ukrainian identity as concept has arisen out of a mutual struggle for survival, international diaspora mobilization, the elevation of diverse narratives of ex…
Biopolitics
War in the borderland through cyberspace
Prior to the onset of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, experts predicted an extensive cyber conflict. However, to date the scale of known cyberattacks has been quite modest. Pundits suggest that Ukraine's improved cyber defenses, which it developed through its close cooperation with Western partners, is one of the possible explanations for Russia's limited cyber front. This article interrogates this claim, outlining two plausible reasons for the lim…
Russian Cyber Operations
Entanglement in Cyberspace
Conventional models of deterrence focus on the ability to deter adversaries through ex-ante threats that impose ex-post costs or through the elevation of ex-ante costs through strategies that deny. The imposition of costs on adversaries in cyberspace is complex and the establishment of deterrence by threat or denial is constrained by problems associated with resource asymmetries, attribution, and a diverse set of actors with overlapping capabilit…
From Cyberspace to Independence Square
Cyberspace has dramatically affected social and political movements over the last 10 years. There is anecdotal evidence to suggest a strong role for information communications technologies (ICTs) in a changing landscape of organization and mobilization for large-scale social and political movements in countries around the world. This paper analyzes the 2013–2014 Euromaidan revolution in Ukraine using big data collected from open source content in…

Subverting Reality
The digital era has placed most of humanity’s knowledge within a few clicks of a computer mouse or the touches of a smart phone screen. Yet in an age where knowledge is so readily available it is a
Innovation and Adaptation in Jihadist Digital Security
Online discussions among jihadists depict a community that is alert to changes both in the technology and the laws and policies of its adversaries
Cyber Actions by State Actors
Covert action is as old as political man. The subversive manipulation of others is nothing new. It has been written about since Sun Tzu and Kautilya. People and nations have always sought the use of shadowy means to influence situations and events. Covert action is and has been a staple of the state system. A dark and nefarious tool often banished to philosophical and intellectual exile, covert action is in truth an oft-used method of achieving u…
The Cyber Losers
National security cyber activities harm human rights and democracy activists. With increasing state cyber capabilities comes heightened pressure on civil society and democracy activists. We often think of the cyber arms race from the perspective of states and corporations; however, the real losers are activists who seek to promote democracy, development, and human rights. This article examines how advances in national security activities have cre…
