Manjari Chatterjee Miller<\/a>, Associate Professor of International Relations at the Frederick S. Pardee School of Global Studies at Boston University, published an article in\u00a0Hindustan Times<\/em><\/a> discussing the rise of cyberwarfare and the country’s perpetuating\u00a0it. This is the fourth of Miller\u2019s monthly columns in\u00a0Hindustan Times<\/em>.<\/p>\n

In the article, titled “The growing threat of cyberwarfare<\/a>,” Miller and co-author Engin Kirda, professor of computer science at Northeastern University, discuss the ease with which governments and individuals can conduct covert cyberwarfare, the wide range of targets it can effect, and how it can be combatted. The authors point out that country’s have been building up their defenses against cyber attacks; however, since it poses a fundamental threat to both institutions and individuals, there must be a longer-term government-driven effort to counter cyberwarfare.<\/p>\n

An excerpt:<\/p>\n

Innovation is of paramount importance given the increasing complexity and sophistication of the attacks \u2014 the US has been investing heavily in new Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies to be able to automatically identify cyber threats and also launch cyberattacks against adversaries. India activated a Defense Cyber Agency last year. But much more needs to be done. Cyberwarfare is here and given that it poses a fundamental threat to both institutions and individuals, there has to be a concerted government-driven long-term strategy to counter it.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
