The Information Warriors

Abstract

Information Warfare (IW) has become today's catchphrase among Western military and political officials. It has emerged as a pressing concern because of the reliance of today's society, military and civil alike, on computers, civil communication networks and databases. As stated by Robert T. Marsh, Chairman of the US Commission on Critical Infrastructure Protection, ‘this reliance exposes infrastructures in new ways, and creates new vulnerabilities’. These vulnerabilities can be exploited by a new type of warfighter — cyber‐warriors.
