The Decision to Attack: Military and Intelligence THE DECISION TO ATTACK: MILITARY AND INTELLIGENCE CYBER DECISION-MAKING by AARON FRANKLIN BRANTLY (Under the Direction of Loch K. Johnson) ABSTRACT The debate over the importance of cyber has resulted in the consideration of a new domain of operation vital to national security. States find themselves in an increasingly interconnected world with a diverse threat spectrum and little understanding of how decisions are made within this amorphous domain. Much of the literature on cyber has focused on defining what cyber is. This dissertation examines how states decide to employ cyber in military and intelligence operations against other states. The research question this work seeks to answer is: do states rationally decide to employ cyber in military and intelligence operations against other states? This work contextualizes broader cyber decision-making processes into a systematic expected utility - rational choice approach to provide a mathematical understanding behind the use of cyber weapons at the state level.

  • Beyond Cyber Doom
    No. 11-01 January 2011 WORKING PAPER BEYOND CYBER-DOOM: Cyberattack Scenarios and the Evidence of History By Sean Lawson The ideas presented in this research are the author’s and do not represent official positions of the Mercatus Center at George Mason University. 1 Beyond Cyber-Doom: Cyberattack Scenarios and the Evidence of History Sean Lawson, Ph.D. Department of Communication University of Utah “[T]hese war games are about the real effects of a cyberwar . about causing chaos in our streets at home due to sudden crashes in our critical infrastructure through manipulation of our banking, transportation, utilities, communications, and other critical infrastructure industries. These are all real scenarios.” (Patterson, 2010b) “In seeking a prudent policy, the difficulty for decision-makers is to navigate the rocky shoals between hysterical doomsday scenarios and uninformed complacency.” (Cavelty, 2007: 144) Introduction Recently, news media and policy makers in the United States have turned their attention to prospective threats to and through an ethereal and ubiquitous technological domain referred to as “cyberspace.” “Cybersecurity” threats include attacks on critical infrastructures like power, water, transportation, and communication systems launched via cyberspace, but also terrorist use of the Internet, mobile phones, and other information and communication technologies (ICTs) for fundraising, recruiting, organizing, and carrying out attacks (Deibert & Rohozinski, 2010). Frustration over a perceived lack of public and policy maker attention to these threats, combined with a belief that “exaggeration” and “appeals to emotions like fear can be more compelling than a rational discussion of strategy” (Lewis, 2010: 4), a number of cybersecurity proponents have deployed what one scholar has called “cyber-doom scenarios” (Cavelty, 2007: 2).

Yeo Ethan Greene Department of Communication Department of Communication University of Utah University of Utah Salt Lake City, Utah, USA Salt Lake City, Utah, USA [email protected] Abstract: In the US cyber security debate, observers have noted there is a tendency for policymakers, military leaders, and media, among others, to use frightening ‘cyber-doom scenarios’ when making the case for action on cyber security (Dunn Cavelty, 2008, p. 2). Some have conjectured that these fictional cyber-doom scenarios, which exemplify ‘fear appeals’ in communication research, have the potential to undermine productive debate aimed at addressing genuine cyber security challenges (Valeriano and Ryan, 2015, pp. 7, 196). Yet, few have directly investigated the impacts of such rhetoric. Here, we assess the impact of cyber-doom scenarios by contextualising them within existing scholarship on the impact of fear appeals, a well-studied phenomenon in communication science.

  • Can Lessons from the Nuclear Experience Provide Answers in Cyberspace?
    CYBER WEAPONS AND NUCLEAR OPTIONS: CAN LESSONS FROM THE NUCLEAR EXPERIENCE PROVIDE ANSWERS IN CYBERSPACE? GEORGETOWN UNIVERSITY A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE AWARD OF HONORS IN SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY, & INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS, EDMUND A. WALSH SCHOOL OF FOREIGN SERVICE, GEORGETOWN UNIVERSITY, SPRING 2013. JAYANT GANDHI – CLASS OF 2013 THESIS ADVISOR: PROFESSOR MATTHEW KROENIG 1 2 ABSTRACT Cyber security is one of the latest hot button issues to affect the national security of states across the world. The new technology has yet to be readily placed in any established military doctrine, but there has been a clear preference of how strategists and policy makers desire to treat cyber weapons. Nuclear weapons, and more specifically nuclear deterrence, represent one of the greatest policy issues of the 20 th century with regards to international security. The success of deterrence in preventing not only the use of nuclear weapons, but also the outbreak of war between the major nuclear powers is seen as a major triumph. Modern policy makers look at this success and seek to emulate it in the cyber realm. This has caused the necessary comparison of cyber weapons to nuclear weapons to be made over and over. Arguments have been made on both sides as to whether or not cyber deterrence is possible, but little time has been spent looking at the basis of this discussion: are cyber and nuclear technologies comparable? This paper goes through the early histories of each technology and explores their technical characteristics in order to fully understand the foundations of this analogy.
