AOC VIRTUAL SERIES WEBINAR: A Systems Approach to Information Warfare, October 5
Thursday, October 05, 2017 |14:00-15:00 EDT
The free flow of information within and between nation states is essential to business, international relations and social cohesion, as much as information is essential to a military force’s ability to fight. Communications today leans heavily on the internet, or via communications using various parts of the electromagnetic spectrum through terrestrial and satellite communications networks. We live in a highly connected world, but it doesn’t take much to tip us over into instability or even chaos. Information warfare combines electronic warfare, cyberwarfare and psychological operations into a single fighting stance with the aim of paralysing decision making, and this stance will be central to all warfare in the future; we also know it as ‘hybrid warfare’.
This webinar will explore, using a systems approach, the anatomy of information warfare and its possible impact on military operations and the cohesion of government organisations in times of conflict. Participants in the webinar will have a clearer understanding of how to recognise the ‘tell-tale’ signs of an information attack in order to mitigate damage.
