The Evolving Face of Cyber Conflict and International Law:听听A Futurespective

in person symposium

June 15 - 17, 2022

It鈥檚 been a little less than a quarter century since the Morris Worm shook the quixotic orthodoxies about the innate trustworthiness of digital interconnectivity and exposed the soft underbelly of what would shortly explode across the globe 鈥� the Internet.听听Since that time, criminals, non-state actors, and states have leveraged the inherent insecurities and vulnerabilities of cyberspace at an ever-increasing rate and with ever-more harmful impact.听听Data theft, ransomware attacks, and critical infrastructure disruptions, to name a few, are now near daily occurrences.听听Notwithstanding the immense societal risks these activities present, a growing number of states have fully embraced cyber tools and operations as staples in their toolkits of both statecraft and warfare.听听

At the same time, until recently states have remained relatively silent on their views of how international law regulates their cyber activities.听听That has begun to change, however, with an increasing number of states making official pronouncements of their听opinio juris, either independently or through established multilateral processes like the UNGGE and OEWG.听听While this is a positive trend, it has also highlighted several disparate views on critical issues and the difficulty in achieving anything more than limited clarity and consensus.听听What can we discern from these state pronouncements?听听What is the present state of the law governing state cyber activities, and where is it headed?听听That is the focus of this symposium.
