Textbook in PDF format Cyber Warfare and Navies, an edited collection, takes a penetrating look into the threats that cyber warfare poses to operations in the maritime environment and the means of defending against cyberattack. As with all elements of the digital age, navies and commercial maritime operations around the world have become increasingly vulnerable to cyber conflict. Navies are obvious targets of hostile national and nonstate cyber actions. Almost every aspect of commercial maritime activities has become digitized and interconnected and thus vulnerable to cyber intrusions, sabotage, viruses, and destruction. In an era when 85 percent of global trade and 70 percent of all liquid fuels travel by sea, cyber effects on ships, port-handling equipment, shipping companies, maritime suppliers, and other maritime industries can cripple manufacturing industries and retail businesses on a global basis. Neither navies nor commercial shipping can "sail away" from cyber threats. Initially, naval leaders had difficulty accepting and preparing for cyber warfare, which is largely viewed as a problem on land and from which ships were perceived as disconnected. As a consequence, effectively integrating cyber operations into its naval warfighting planning has proven challenging not only for the U.S. Navy, but for allied and adversary navies as well. The U.S. Navy created Fleet Cyber Command (FCC), with the U.S. Navy's Tenth Fleet as its cyber operational arm and the Navy's component contributing to U.S. Cyber Command (USCYBERCOM). However, thus far those efforts appear not to have served the Navy or USCYBERCOM as well as anticipated. Cyber Warfare and Navies outlines the various threats that cyber warfare poses to naval and commercial maritime operations as well as the abilities of modern navies to defend against those threats. It explains how navies are organized and equipped for cyber operations and the concepts and doctrine adopted by those navies—and provides recommendations on how to improve maritime cyber operations. The book covers not just the U.S. Navy, U.S. Marine Corps, and U.S Coast Guard, but also the navies of allies, opponents (China, Russia), and others. The book also explores the relationship between the U.S. Navy, Marine Corps, Coast Guard, and USCYBERCOM. When governments engage in malicious cross-border cyber exploitation themselves or through proxies, “cybered conflict” emerges. It is a spectrum of struggle stretching from peace through kinetic war that is built on the cybered insecurity of modern societies. In this case, the term “cybered” emphasizes the systemic shaping and likely cumulatively strategic effects far beyond networks and throughout society in peace, crisis, and warfare. When large states elevate the base level of cybered conflict to major operations for their own purposes to harm or manipulate the cybered systems of other nations, cyber warfare emerges. “Cyber warfare” is a cumulative term capturing the processes, organizations, strategies, tools, techniques, and contestations enabled by cybered conflict’s technologies and techniques and employed by states in campaigns against key societal systems of opposing states along the full spectrum of peace to kinetic war. As these campaigns become recognized and begin to shape the assumptions about, and rankings within, the global distribution of whole-of-society power and likely outcomes, Great Systems Conflict (GSC) emerges. Cyber warfare accelerates, even if secretly, and the largest states in the world intensify their efforts and expand organizations meant to systemically exploit, expand, and evolve the five offense advantages into coercive campaigns against their adversary states. While espionage has always been useful, a critical characteristic of GSC is the persistent hunt for entr?e into adversaries’ cybered systems. Access starts everything in cybered conflict; without it, no tool can be applied, offense advantage employed, or effect achieved.27 Knowing at all times—to the extent possible—what systems the defender uses with which vulnerabilities or what tools attackers could employ is crucial to whether any cybered operations in offense or defenses will work. When the major global states have risen to this level of constant, deceptive, and obscurable conflict, defenders must assume adversaries are ubiquitous and seeking to find the cyber vulnerabilities of their and other states’ key systems, even if only to stockpile these “zero days”—unseen exploitable weaknesses—for later use
