Paper proposing a framework for assessing the objectives, actions and impacts of nation states in the cyber realm.

  • This paper is a follow up to the 2009 "Rethinking the Cyber Threat" paper. In the years since that paper was published, new threats to computer security have emerged, existing threats have been amplified, and proposed operational tactics have led to serious debates on the trade-offs between security and civil liberties. This new paper proposes a framework for assessing the objectives, actions and impacts of nation states in the cyber realm and draws the conclusions that "... a world where every individual is increasingly dependent on information technology, it is important that governments reach agreements on cybersecurity norms of behavior and that the activities of governments and businesses be scoped appropriately."
