What Cyberspace Is

Cyberspace is An inherently technological domain in and through which we conduct

operations Characterized by the electromagnetic spectrum—not just “networks” A domain where information lives 24/7/365 The global connective tissue and our Country’s nervous system More than just the components that create it--connections, content,

context, and cognition matter greatly

In cyberspace National boundaries and socio-political divides are minimal barriers Constraints of distance, space, time and investment are reduced--for

us and our enemies Different notions of sovereignty, ownership and behavior Laws, conventions, ROE, doctrine, concepts lag technology

I n t e g r i t y - S e r v i c e - E x c e l l e n c e

Cyberspace: Vulnerabilities

As the dominant global power, US is most vulnerable to attacks in this domain

“Electronic Pearl Harbor”/ “E-Katrina” Cyberspace provides a fulcrum to leverage physical attacks by

disrupting/delaying/hindering US response Cyber weapons can be Weapons of Mass Disruption / Mass Effect

Anything we can do in Cyberspace can be done to us cheaper and faster

Vulnerabilities are open to the world, available to anyone, anywhere, with the capability and intent to exploit them

Cyberspace provides the means for organized attacks on our infrastructure, from a distance, at the speed of light
