The Theoretical and Legal Framework of Cyber ​​Warfare

Dr. Nabil Obeid Khalaf

Abstract

This research addresses a highly important topic in the field of public international law, highlighting cyberattacks that target national infrastructure, damaging internet and communication networks, vital facilities, and paralyzing security, economic, and military systems. These attacks pose a significant threat to national security. The difficulty in identifying the source of these attacks or attributing them to a specific state or entity exacerbates this problem. It has become essential to understand this new form of warfare, which now operates in cyberspace. It utilizes tools and methods representing a new generation of warfare, entirely different from conventional or nuclear weapons. The research also examines whether the provisions of international agreements and customary rules governing the conduct of hostilities apply to these attacks.

الكلمات المفتاحية: Cyber warfare, cyberspace, international agreements, public international law, United Nations Charter.
