Abstract :
With more and more of the activities of individuals, organizations and nations being conducted in cyberspace, the security of those activities is an emerging challenge for society. The medium has thus created new potentials for criminal or hostile actions, "bad actors" in cyberspace carrying out these hostile actions, and threats to societal interests as a result of these hostile actions.
