Basic tactics of information warfare
The use of information as a weapon against the enemy is a consequence of the development of technology in the modern era. The so-called information wars are waged using a number of tactics such as the use of the media and social media. It is becoming more and more difficult for international law to regulate information warfare due to the non-material nature of the damage caused by information warfare operations. The unregulated nature of information operations allows information warfare to be used to gain an advantage over its adversaries. All this creates a threat to information security, where more and more attention has to be paid to preventing or reducing the likelihood of unauthorized access to data or illegal use, disclosure, violation, deletion, damage, modification, verification, recording or devaluation of information. This also includes actions to mitigate the negative consequences of such incidents.
