Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 Bill Clinton, the President of the United States, was asked about his speech at the National Academy of Sciences in January 1999. He had proposed budget initiatives to combat emerging threats, including those in the cyber domain. Few people saw cyber threats as a major problem then. #2 The balance between offense and defense in cyberspace is changing, and this can be used to increase peacetime stability and crisis stability for corporations and nations. #3 The Pentagon has long identified four primary domains of conflict: land, sea, air, and space. In recent years, cyberspace has come to be known as the fifth domain. While cyberspace can be changed by man, it is a positive attribute of cyberspace that once a weapon has been used and discovered, it can be blocked. #4 The next major war the United States enters will be provoked by a cyberattack. We must address the problems of cyberspace to prevent future conflicts. The speed and connectivity that enable cyber warfare also enable email, social media, Amazon Prime, and massive multiplayer games.
