Book Synopsis Proceedings of a Workshop on Deterring Cyberattacks by : National Research Council
Download or read book Proceedings of a Workshop on Deterring Cyberattacks written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2010-10-30 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a world of increasing dependence on information technology, the prevention of cyberattacks on a nation's important computer and communications systems and networks is a problem that looms large. Given the demonstrated limitations of passive cybersecurity defense measures, it is natural to consider the possibility that deterrence might play a useful role in preventing cyberattacks against the United States and its vital interests. At the request of the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, the National Research Council undertook a two-phase project aimed to foster a broad, multidisciplinary examination of strategies for deterring cyberattacks on the United States and of the possible utility of these strategies for the U.S. government. The first phase produced a letter report providing basic information needed to understand the nature of the problem and to articulate important questions that can drive research regarding ways of more effectively preventing, discouraging, and inhibiting hostile activity against important U.S. information systems and networks. The second phase of the project entailed selecting appropriate experts to write papers on questions raised in the letter report. A number of experts, identified by the committee, were commissioned to write these papers under contract with the National Academy of Sciences. Commissioned papers were discussed at a public workshop held June 10-11, 2010, in Washington, D.C., and authors revised their papers after the workshop. Although the authors were selected and the papers reviewed and discussed by the committee, the individually authored papers do not reflect consensus views of the committee, and the reader should view these papers as offering points of departure that can stimulate further work on the topics discussed. The papers presented in this volume are published essentially as received from the authors, with some proofreading corrections made as limited time allowed.

Download or read book Cyber Warfare written by James A. Green and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-05-22 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a multi-disciplinary analysis of cyber warfare, featuring contributions by leading experts from a mixture of academic and professional backgrounds. Cyber warfare, meaning interstate cyber aggression, is an increasingly important emerging phenomenon in international relations, with state-orchestrated (or apparently state-orchestrated) computer network attacks occurring in Estonia (2007), Georgia (2008) and Iran (2010). This method of waging warfare – given its potential to, for example, make planes fall from the sky or cause nuclear power plants to melt down – has the capacity to be as devastating as any conventional means of conducting armed conflict. Every state in the world now has a cyber-defence programme and over 120 states also have a cyber-attack programme. While the amount of literature on cyber warfare is growing within disciplines, our understanding of the subject has been limited by a lack of cross-disciplinary engagement. In response, this book, drawn from the fields of computer science, military strategy, international law, political science and military ethics, provides a critical overview of cyber warfare for those approaching the topic from whatever angle. Chapters consider the emergence of the phenomena of cyber warfare in international affairs; what cyber-attacks are from a technological standpoint; the extent to which cyber-attacks can be attributed to state actors; the strategic value and danger posed by cyber conflict; the legal regulation of cyber-attacks, both as international uses of force and as part of an on-going armed conflict, and the ethical implications of cyber warfare. This book will be of great interest to students of cyber warfare, cyber security, military ethics, international law, security studies and IR in general.
Book Synopsis Confronting Cyberespionage Under International Law by : Oğuz Kaan Pehlivan
Download or read book Confronting Cyberespionage Under International Law written by Oğuz Kaan Pehlivan and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-09-03 with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We have witnessed a digital revolution that affects the dynamics of existing traditional social, economic, political and legal systems. This revolution has transformed espionage and its features, such as its purpose and targets, methods and means, and actors and incidents, which paves the way for the emergence of the term cyberespionage. This book seeks to address domestic and international legal tools appropriate to adopt in cases of cyberespionage incidents. Cyberespionage operations of state or non-state actors are a kind of cyber attack, which violates certain principles of international law but also constitute wrongful acquisition and misappropriation of the data. Therefore, from the use of force to state responsibility, international law offers a wide array of solutions; likewise, domestic regulations through either specialized laws or general principles stipulate civil and criminal remedies against cyberespionage. Confronting Cyberespionage Under International Law examines how espionage and its applications have transformed since World War II and how domestic and international legal mechanisms can provide effective legal solutions to this change, hindering the economic development and well-being of individuals, companies and states to the detriment of others. It shows the latest state of knowledge on the topic and will be of interest to researchers, academics, legal practitioners, legal advisors and students in the fields of international law, information technology law and intellectual property law.

Download or read book On Cyber Warfare written by Paul Cornish and published by Chatham House Report. This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report argues that national strategy must be reviewed and adapted if it is to take proper account of cyber warfare. The report's key findings include: Cyber warfare can enable actors to achieve their political and strategic goals without the need for armed conflict; Cyberspace gives disproportionate power to small and otherwise relatively insignificant actors; Operating behind false IP addresses, foreign servers and aliases, attackers can act with almost complete anonymity and relative impunity, at least in the short term; In cyberspace the boundaries are blurred between the military and the civilian, and between the physical and the virtual; and power can be exerted by states or non-state actors, or by proxy; Cyberspace should be viewed as the 'fifth battlespace', alongside the more traditional arenas of land, air, sea and space. Cyber warfare is best understood as a new but not entirely separate component of this multifaceted conflict environment; The transatlantic relationship is important for a variety of reasons where cyber warfare is concerned. Close cooperation between the United States and the United Kingdom in intelligence and military matters has extended into cyberspace, enabling both states to influence the domain in a way that is difficult, if not impossible, for any other bilateral partnership or alliance to match.
Book Synopsis Cyberespionage 2010 by : Jorge H. Romero
Download or read book Cyberespionage 2010 written by Jorge H. Romero and published by . This book was released on 2001-08 with total page 65 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this thesis I will argue that the current status of espionage under international law is applicable in cyberspace. Therefore, there is no need to reinterpret espionage under international law in cyberspace. There is no need for new treaties to regulate or control espionage in cyberspace among nations. At the present time, espionage is legal under international law, or stated in another way, there are no international law prohibitions against espionage. Presently, there is a discussion about the applicability of various areas of the law in cyberspace. One school of thought says that new laws are needed to adapt an area of law into cyberspace. The other school of thought believes that there is no need for new laws - that current principles of laws can be analogized into cyberspace. The first school of thought is led by Professor Lawrence Lessig. The second school of thought is led by Judge Frank Easterbrook. I will argue that Judge Easterbrook's position should be followed in the area of espionage in cyberspace (hereinafter I will refer to this concept as cyberespionage"). Finally, I will examine the consequences of cyberespionage to the present framework of espionage and international law.

Book excerpt: Although the identity and motivation of the attackers remain unknown, the report is able to determine the location (Chengdu, PRC) as well as some of the associations of the attackers through circumstantial evidence. [...] These characteristics are interpreted in the context of the nature of the targets and the objective of the attack. [...] The nature and timing of the attack, the exploit, the malware, and the command and control infrastructure, are just some of the components that go into determining attribution. [...] Knowing the meth- ods and behaviour of the attackers as well as the character of the tools the attackers use once inside the target's network, the data that the attackers exfiltrate and where that data goes, are also crucial parts of the overall as- sessment (Bejtlich 2010; Cloppert 2009; Mandiant 2010). [...] Moreover, it allows for the investigation of the context surrounding the the target and why the victims may have been targeted in the first place.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many people think of the Smart Grid as a power distribution group built on advanced smart metering—but that's just one aspect of a much larger and more complex system. The "Smart Grid" requires new technologies throughout energy generation, transmission and distribution, and even the homes and businesses being served by the grid. This also represents new information paths between these new systems and services, all of which represents risk, requiring a more thorough approach to where and how cyber security controls are implemented. This insight provides a detailed architecture of the entire Smart Grid, with recommended cyber security measures for everything from the supply chain to the consumer. - Discover the potential of the Smart Grid - Learn in depth about its systems - See its vulnerabilities and how best to protect it

Download or read book Cybercrime written by Susan W. Brenner and published by . This book was released on 2012-07-23 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Russia, there are people who earn their living trading in personal information belonging to American citizens. They maintain websites where one can buy names, addresses, and Social Security and credit card numbers. Cybercrime flourishes? Both transnationally and within our own borders. It is time to arm ourselves with the information we need to remain safe. Cybercrime: Criminal Threats from Cyberspace is intended to explain two things: what cybercrime is and why the average citizen should care about it. To accomplish that task, the book offers an overview of cybercrime and an in-depth discussion of the legal and policy issues surrounding it. Enhancing her narrative with real-life stories, author Susan W. Brenner traces the rise of cybercrime from mainframe computer hacking in the 1950s to the organized, professional, and often transnational cybercrime that has become the norm in the 21st century. She explains the many different types of computer-facilitated crime, including identity theft, stalking, extortion, and the use of viruses and worms to damage computers, and outlines and analyzes the challenges cybercrime poses for law enforcement officers at the national and international levels. Finally, she considers the inherent tension between improving law enforcement`s ability to pursue cybercriminals and protecting the privacy of U.S. citizens.

Book Synopsis Countdown to Zero Day by : Kim Zetter
Download or read book Countdown to Zero Day written by Kim Zetter and published by Crown. This book was released on 2015-09-01 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A top cybersecurity journalist tells the story behind the virus that sabotaged Iran’s nuclear efforts and shows how its existence has ushered in a new age of warfare—one in which a digital attack can have the same destructive capability as a megaton bomb. “Immensely enjoyable . . . Zetter turns a complicated and technical cyber story into an engrossing whodunit.”—The Washington Post The virus now known as Stuxnet was unlike any other piece of malware built before: Rather than simply hijacking targeted computers or stealing information from them, it proved that a piece of code could escape the digital realm and wreak actual, physical destruction—in this case, on an Iranian nuclear facility. In these pages, journalist Kim Zetter tells the whole story behind the world’s first cyberweapon, covering its genesis in the corridors of the White House and its effects in Iran—and telling the spectacular, unlikely tale of the security geeks who managed to unravel a top secret sabotage campaign years in the making. But Countdown to Zero Day also ranges beyond Stuxnet itself, exploring the history of cyberwarfare and its future, showing us what might happen should our infrastructure be targeted by a Stuxnet-style attack, and ultimately, providing a portrait of a world at the edge of a new kind of war.
