Cyber

This paper explores Russia's evolving cyber strategies, focusing on its use of cyber tools for both domestic control and foreign influence. It examines how Russia has integrated cyber operations into its broader foreign and security policy, often as part of an approach that combines cyberattacks, disinformation, and diplomatic pressure. Over 200 pages, rather extensive.

In this, the authors look at Russian cyber campaigns against Ukraine, arguing that these operations are not isolated incidents, but part of a broader strategy. The text explores how Russia has used cyber attacks, ranging from espionage to destructive attacks, alongside military, diplomatic, and informational tactics to achieve its geopolitical goals. The paper also investigates the actual impact of these cyber campaigns on Ukraine's.

There is a lot of research on Russian practices when it comes to cyber attacks and information warfare, but comparatively little about how the people on the receiving end are dealing with it - something this paper takes an in-depth look at. By doing that the authors show that Ukrainian successes highlight the importance of preparation and investments in resilience as well as partnerships with both government and private industry entities. The authors also argue that information security (not cyber security, mind you) must be reconceptualized as a whole-of-society challenge, requiring coordination across technical, legal, and human dimensions.
