Cyber Warfare and Navies outlines the various threats that cyber warfare poses to naval and commercial maritime operations as well as the abilities of modern navies to defend against those threats. It explains how navies are organized and equipped for cyber operations and the concepts and doctrine adopted by those navies—and provides recommendations on how to improve maritime cyber operations. The book covers not just the U.S. Navy, U.S. Marine Corps, and U.S Coast Guard, but also the navies of allies, opponents (China, Russia), and others. The book also explores the relationship between the U.S. Navy, Marine Corps, Coast Guard, and USCYBERCOM.
Cyber Threats to Commercial Maritime Order
Authors: Bruce Jones
In Cyber Warfare and Navies: Digital Conflict in the Maritime Domain, Bruce Jones describes the threat of cyber attacks on the commercial maritime order. With the world economy massively reliant on global supply chains—which largely move by sea—cyber attacks have potential to cause devastating disruptions. Given this, the maritime industry is relatively under-protected. The chapter examines the dynamics which shape this vulnerability, and outlines areas for further research and policy questions to consider.
