Symposium: War in the 5th Domain: Cyber Strategy in the West

Denmark is about to adopt its first cyber strategy and both NATO and the EU have developed cyber strategies. Leading scholars and strategists from the United States, United Kingdom, Germany, and Denmark will discuss these developments in the context of the cyber domain, how Western militaries have conceived of it, and the types of strategies that they are devising to deal with it.

It will be held at the Royal Danish Defence College in Copenhagen. The symposium is sponsored by the Centre for Military Studies at the University of Copenhagen and the Danish Atlantic Treaty Association. Please register by e-mailing tilmelding@atlant.dk or by phone @ +45-3927-1944.
