Concerns of a New Digital Cold War
Nations may be defining what are acceptable targets for digital attacks against adversaries. We are likely to see nation sponsored or directed attacks against critical infrastructures that could escalate and cause cascading impacts around the globe.
The boundaries are currently being defined by actions and responses, rather than formal accords. That is a dangerous path.
Digital warfare is powerful and far-reaching. Boundaries need to be defined, just as we have in kinetic warfare. The risks is that a digital attack may go too far and start a shooting war.

I definitely agree hence most of our systems have employed IoT. We ae susceptible to cyberattacks, and a new era of warfare may be at hand already. This is an interesting watch. Thanks for sharing, @mrosenquist!
Everything connected is vulnerable in some way!
Its said that now the wars would not be fought on land or water but it would be in the digital age and digital watfares would become rampant in days to come
I guess the Geneva Conventions could use an update then.
Yes they could. Need to keep up with the times.
