In and Around War(s): Season 2, Episode 4: War and the Cyberspace

  • Summary

  • Cyberspace is increasingly used for war related purposes. But does international humanitarian law apply to cyber operations? In the season’s 2 last episode, Paola Gaeta and Ana Srovin Coralli host a very special guest – Antonio Coco, a Lecturer in International Law at the Essex University and an alumnus of the Geneva Academy – and an usual co-host of this podcast. They discuss inter alia which kind of cyber operations may be carried out in war, when a cyberattack can amount to an armed attack against a state, and whether there is a need for new rules which would be better placed to address the realities and challenges brought about by attacks in cyberspace.
