| Summary / Abstract (Note) | Cyber warfare is very similar in nature to naval warfare. In international waters, navy encounters enemy warships, large merchant vessels, small merchant ships, fishing boats and guised surveillance ships from all directions. There are no borders to clearly establish that everything on the other side belongs to enemy. Though there are Sea-Lanes-of-Communication (SLOC) but two ports are actually on connectionless service and no ship is bound to follow SLOC. In cyberspace, IP address is the flag which every asset on the Internet displays but ruse is not uncommon. It is therefore necessary to identify the cyber assets positively in any cyber-conflict before any aggressive response is initiated. Wearing flag of convenience is common for sea vessels as well as cyber assets. |
