Cyber attacks are now a common element of international conflict, both on their own and in conjunction with broader military operations. Targets have included government networks, media outlets, banking services, and critical infrastructure. The effects and implications of such attacks may be small or large; cyber attacks have defaced websites, temporarily shut down networks and cut off access to essential information and services, and damaged industrial infrastructure. Despite being relatively common, cyber attacks are difficult to identify at their source and thwart, in particular because politically motivated attacks are often crowd-sourced, and online criminal organizations are easy to join. Suspicions of state-sponsored cyber attacks are often strong but difficult to prove. The relative anonymity under which actors operate in cyberspace affords a degree of plausible deniability.
