Cyber Wars and Their Impact on International Security

Abstract

The relationship between cyberspace and international security has emerged with the growing adoption of electronic governments by many countries, in addition to the expansion of the users of communication and technology means in the world. National databases are in a state of external exposure, which exposes them to the risk of being exposed to cyber-attacks. National interests are also related to the infrastructure that is vulnerable to the risk of cyber-attack. This research aims to study the impact of cyber wars on international security. The research has found that cyber wars are more dangerous than military wars because they have the ability to destroy systems and completely prevent them from working, as well as the recurring cyber-attacks that will lead to increased interest in security information.

Keywords: cyber wars, cyber security, cyber space, international security.
