Looking for a clear, current guide to Geopolitical Cyber Risk? Geopolitical Cyber Risk is a 53-page illustrated PDF from the oJAYo team. How global tensions shape cyber threats, and how organizations prepare.
Cyberspace has become a major arena of competition between states. Governments use cyber operations to spy, to prepare for possible conflict, to disrupt opponents and, in some cases, to steal money. Organizations with no political role can be caught in the crossfire, through shared software, suppliers, infrastructure or simply because of the sector or country they operate in.
Geopolitical cyber risk is the risk that international tensions, conflicts and policies create cyber threats or disruption for an organization. This book explains, for beginners, how states and their proxies operate, what landmark events teach us, and how organizations can assess their exposure and build resilience.
