Building on the findings of the previous cyber expert-pool meetings, as well as on the findings of two Cyber-Power in Hybrid Conflict and Warfare (CPH) Symposiums, Hybrid CoE’s Community of Interest on Strategy and Defence together with the Research and Analysis team organized a virtual roundtable on the hybrid threat implications of activities in cyberspace, paying particular attention to the capabilities of the armed forces in the future.
Eighteen experts from 14 Participating States, the EU and NATO discussed questions related to command-and-control systems in cyberspace, cyberattack deterrence, building defensive capabilities to counter cyberattacks in the context of hybrid operations, and small states’ possibilities to gain significant wins over big nations and their armed forces with cyber capabilities. The objective of the roundtable was to feed in ideas for the Annual Cyber Symposium that is planned to be held in November 2021.
