Abstract

This pilot study explores how effects in the cyber domain might be handled during wargames involving armed conflict. Several factors that need to be taken into account for cyber are identified, such as actor classification, type of effect, recovery time and the attacks resource cost. Several types of cyberattacks are explored to highlight what has been possible to achieve in the past. Finally, a concept for a method of evaluating cyberwarfare is presented, along with a few example attacks to display what the material looks like.
