• Full title: Strategic Information Warfare in Cyberspace
• Author: Philipp Krenn
• Completed: February 2003
• Language: English

Abstract: Strategic information warfare in cyberspace might not happen at all, it might happen many times. Its scale and influence are unpredictable, one cannot know who might launch the first major attack against who. The threat of digital warfare is like the one of nuclear war. One can only hope that it will never occur, but the only logical defense against it is preparedness.
