Release Of The 2012 Version Of The Cyber Warfare: The Cyber Commander's EHandbook.

Online, January 12, 2012 (Newswire.com) - The global reliance on computers, networks and systems continues to grow. As our dependency grows so do the threats that target our military s Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance, Reconnaissance (C4ISR) systems as well as the operational components and electronic controls for our critical infrastructure. Over the past decade we have experienced a substantial rise in the complexity and sophistication of cyber attacks as well as a frightening increase in the impact of some of the attacks. Every computer is a potential cyber weapon waiting to be loaded and used by extremists, criminals, terrorists and rogue nation states. As the world becomes more and more dependent on computers and information technology, the greater the risk of cyber attacks. Government and military leaders now face this fact and our critical systems and infrastructure remain at great risk! This risk has made the ability to defend these critical systems and direct cyber attacks core capabilities required for the modern military. In the age of cyber conflict, leaders need to understand the weapons and strategies used to wage this rapidly evolving type of warfare.

Review: The Cyber Commander's Handbook is a must-have for anyone serious about cyber warfare! It is very informative and practical in nature. The book concisely describes cyber warfare strategies, covers the proliferation of cyber weapons, and gives the reader a firm foundation on what cyber warfare is all about. I recommend this manual as a way to enrich our nation's cyber leaders and also to raise cyber warfare awareness.
