Abstract: Abstract This paper reviews international technical, legal, strategy, and policy initiatives aimed at providing a legal infrastructure for what transpires over the cyberspace. It provides readers with the understanding required to handle delicate legal and definitional issues, and concludes by examining the role of the international humanitarian law and other UN conventions in further developing international regulatory framework, standards, and norms.
