Introduction
China's Cyber Warfare
The People’s Republic of China (PRC, China) acquired a singular notoriety in the years 1998 to 2014. This was the period when multi-state accusations of computer network intrusions by China gained prominence, while existing open source knowledge on this topic remained superficial and misinformed. Cybercrime, including state-sponsored cybercrime, was estimated in 2014 to cost...

    5 - Application of Cyber Warfare to the Taiwan Issue
    China's Cyber Warfare
    Applying Chinese cyber warfare to a particular issue will demonstrate how CNO, IO, and NCW work in unison, yet remain distinct. China has several maritime disputes, from Japan and South Korea in the East China Sea and Yellow Sea, to the Philippines and Vietnam in the South China Sea. The status of the Republic of China (Taiwan), however, warrants particular attention as it is a perennial affair....

    Conclusion
    China's Cyber Warfare
    Through a conceptual framework and historical analysis, this research has addressed gaps in China’s strategic doctrine and the field of cyber warfare. A lack of transparency in Chinese military affairs, the infancy of the field of cyber warfare, and unconsolidated cyber terminology contributed to the absence of China’s cyber warfare doctrine in open source material. These problems were...
