Summary/Abstract: The cybersecurity landscape faces unprecedented challenges, amplified by advanced technologies and modern geopolitical conflicts like the war in Ukraine. Cyber operations have become integral to warfare, targeting critical infrastructure, spreading misinformation, and destabilizing communication networks. This conflict has revealed the growing role of state-sponsored attacks, including ransomware and Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs), blurring the lines between cyber and kinetic operations. Emerging technologies, such as artificial intelligence (AI), quantum computing, and the Internet of Things (IoT), have introduced new vulnerabilities and escalated the complexity of cyber threats. The paper also addresses the legal and ethical dilemmas of cyber warfare, emphasizing the need for international collaboration and robust policy frameworks. By examining the Ukrainian conflict, this study highlights cybersecurity's strategic importance in modern conflicts and advocates for innovative, multidisciplinary solutions to enhance global resilience in an increasingly digital battlefield.
