BIPSS Issue Brief January 2012 edition has just been published. The Issue Brief focuses on cyber security, discusses different types of cyber attacks and looks into the question if threats from cyber space are an emerging threat landscape.
If the whole world is connected via internet, cyber attacks are never just a national threat. Computer viruses, worms and botnets usually affect computers worldwide. So every government and every company who is using electronic data processing has to find a way to secure data, to protect private and confidential data against unauthorized access, to control and limit access to electronic devices and administration, and to fend off attacks on their computer systems. So when it comes to cyber security, governments and companies should keep in mind what damage their sensitive data could create if it falls into wrong hands. Cyber espionage and cyber attacks on elementary infrastructure are only two of the different topics that are discussed in the Issue Brief.
