CYBER WARFARE UPDATE

09 Jan 11. U.K. to establish Cyber Command. General Sir David Richards is planning to set up a U.K. Cyber Command after warning that future wars are likely to take place in cyberspace.
“We must learn to defend, delay, attack and manoeuvre in cyberspace, just as we might on the land, sea or air. Future wars will always include a cyber dimension and it could become the dominant form.” In the future, I don’t think state-to-state warfare will start in the way it did even 10 years ago, it will be cyber or banking attacks – that’s how I’d conduct a war if I was running a belligerent state or a rebel movement. It’s semi-anonymous and doesn’t risk people.” (Source: The Sunday Times.)
