Working Papers from eSocialSciences

Abstract: Cyber operations could have as devastating an impact on populations as conventional military weapons. With militaries already in the process of developing cyberwarfare as a means of battle, there is an urgent need for policymakers to understand this new realm and develop norms and rules to govern it. In this respect, the developing world has lagged behind the developed world. With more and more countries wiring their infrastructure to cyberspace, however, the developing world cannot afford to be left out of the international discussion on cyberwarfare. This NTS Insight discusses how the developing world can build capacity in this area. [NTS Insight no. IN1305]. URL:[http://www.rsis.edu.sg/nts/HTML-Newsletter/Insight/pdf/NTS_Insight_jul_1301.pdf].
