Abstract

In the modern world, transferring data into digital format, electronic commerce, social media, and receiving public services through online platforms are very relevant. The more states become dependent on cyberspace, the more reasons and means hostile actors have for cyberattacks, stealing and distorting information, and paralyzing systems. We must keep in mind that cyber security is not only about computer programming and information technology. Cyber security is a vital part of national security, as cyber-attacks target people, public opinion, and public and business sectors. China is indeed quite an aggressive cyber actor, but there is another, non-democratic state that has much greater economic-technological resources, ambition, and aspiration for cyber expansionism.
