'It ‘clear to all, a cyber threat can cause extensive damage as any military operation, a cyber weapon may claim more lives than an attack and in a more subtle mode.'

'Operation made in cyberspace have direct and immediate effect in real world.'

Acts of Terrorism vs. Cyber Threats: New Offense Scenarios: on infosecland: http://infosecisland.com/blogview/19869-Acts-of-Terrorism-vs-Cyber-Threats-New-Offense-Scenarios.html

QUOTE:

'Cyber crime, cyber-espionage, massive attacks, hacktivism, and the use of cyber weapons against critical infrastructure are all phenomena that are increasing in frequency and able to induce more damage than a conventional act of terrorism.

Consider also that cyber crime is difficult to identify and can be perpetrated for a long period of time covertly with terrifying consequences.

In terms of security, last year we witnessed an escalation of cyber operations that on more than one occasion have distinguished themselves for their effectiveness and damage inflicted.'

Syrian Drama and the Impact on Cyberspace: on infosecisland.com: http://infosecisland.com/blogview/20018-Syrian-Drama-and-the-Impact-on-Cyberspace.html

QUOTE:
'We are learning that a cyber threat is an offensive just like a military attack, and in a context like the one we are observing, it would be wrong not to consider further a possible source of attacks.

Cyberspace and the real world are closely linked by an unbreakable but thin thread which needs to be analyzed carefully to understand each other's evolution.'

'Cyberspace is comparable to a stormy sea in which you navigate by sight and where the scenarios are changing rapidly in an unpredictable way by the presence of uncontrolled entities such as groups of hackers and cyber hacktivists, in addition to cyber armies set up by the main world powers.'
