Overview

Understand China's cyberwarfare

21st Century Chinese Cyberwarfare presents the salient information regarding the use of cyberwarfare doctrine by the People's Republic of China to promote its own interests and enforce its will on other nations. It draws from a combination of business, cultural, historical, and linguistic sources, as well as the author's personal experience, to attempt to explain China to the uninitiated.

The author argues that the threat of Chinese cyberwarfare can no longer be ignored, that it is a clear and present danger to organizations of all shapes and sizes, and that it will be economically, societally and culturally damaging for the nations that are targeted.

To me, the book is a cross between a military text book and an IT Security book. The military part of the book covers Chinese military doctrine for conducting cyber operations, placing the Chinese method of conducting a virtual offensive soundly on a theoretical basis. It suggests Chinese principles of war, but in the cyberwarfare areana. It supports analysis with a detailed breakdown of the Chinese organisation / structures for conducting cyber operations, showing how the People's Liberation army, is supported by State Owned Enterprises and state sponsored hackers. The book is well worth reading for those interested in IT Security set in its wider importance.
