Abstract "Cybersecurity is less like warfare and more like intelligence. Intelligence is a form of conflict that exploits cooperation, and cyber conflict is a form of intelligence that exploits large-scale cooperation in cyberspace. This book thus develops a general theory of secret statecraft and intelligence performance to explain modern cyber campaigns"-- Provided by publisher.
