Summary/Abstract: Today’s cyber threat landscape is markedly different from that of a few years ago. Experts and officials agree that the speed of attacks and their sophistication has changed dramatically. Another vital difference lies in their diversity. Cyber risks threaten the benefits, whether economic, political or social that the human invention of cyberspace can offer. The increasing importance of cyber as a new “Great Game” merits the question as to whether NATO’s current role and activities are enough. With its extensive experience and unique status as an important player in global security, should NATO play a different, more pro-active role in contributing to cyber-security globally?
