Preemptive self-defence in cyberspace
Original language description
Cyberspace gives rise to new challenges and threats to international peace and security. Foreign cyberattacks and interferences are becoming more frequent and sophisticated and target all domains of society. In our digital and globalized world, a cyberattack can attain similar destructive effects and multifaceted damage as a conventional attack. Its immediacy, undetectability, and the intricate traceability of the author make it difficult for the States to prevent and repel such interferences and to protect themselves. In this light, some States start to claim their right to pre-emptive self-defence in cyberspace. The aim of the article is to present this topical debate and critically analyze the argument of pre-emptive self-defence in the specific conditions of cybersecurity, in light of the current international legal norms and States’ practice. A new potential for further development of international law will be opened. © 2021, Czech Society of International Law. All rights reserved.
