Summary/Abstract: This article identifies and characterizes new tendencies in activities of states in cyberspace in the second decade of the 21st century. The paper argues that there are four major trends noticeable. Firstly, the Russian Federation has changed its approach to the use of cyberspace during military conflicts, which was visible during the conflict in Donbass. Secondly, advanced cyber espionage campaigns attempting to influence democratic processes in developed countries have been also a new phenomenon. Thirdly, previous controversies between China and the U.S. on cybersecurity problems have been toned down due to their recent agreement. And finally, the usability of military cyber‑units in asymmetric conflict was also proven.
