Summary/Abstract: Cognitive warfare is gaining an increasingly consistency, situation in which military technology manufacturers are allocating more and more resources to testing and implementing emerging and disruptive techniques and components. The "experiments" carried out in contemporary theatre of wars suggest that future offensive actions will include new tools with which hitting operational and strategic objectives, be they material or immaterial, will be much more complex and persuasive. Enemies can be state or non-state entities and targets can be selected from among personalities to a state, a demographic region or an alliance of states.In our work we did a critical analysis of the cognitive warfare concept and its intersections with emerging and disruptive technologies. Based on this analysis,we formulate some conclusions and proposals for urgent and forward-looking measures, intended to denial and countermeasures to cognitive warfare actions, measures that should be implemented in various security strategies.
