New Thinking on UK Cyber Effects: An Edited Collection

Cyber effects operations are a key tool of contemporary statecraft. But what do they look like for the UK, and other medium powers? New Thinking on UK Cyber Effects: An Edited Collection is the first effort to ask about and discuss the British way of cyber warfare. Bringing together a community of practice that draws on academic and policy research, professional insights and multidisciplinary expertise, this volume aims to reframe our understanding of cyber effects operations and UK strategic culture.
