| dc.description.abstract | The aim of the article is to present the concept of iWar, a new, unique idea of war.
Understanding and specificity of the concept is associated with changes that take place in
the way of functioning of modern societies. The term iWar is used to describe the form of
war on the Internet, as well as the signs of attacks carried out on the web, which are targeted
at the consumer’s internet infrastructure, such as websites providing access to online
banking services. Thus, iWar differs from cyberwar, cyberterrorism, information warfare
of information fights that involve communication control, access to military and critical
infrastructure, electronic espionage, and command and control of the battlefield, and their
battlefield is a communication network and satellite intelligence. The article presents the
socio-technical dimensions that characterize the new dimension of war: individualization,
secretiveness, interactivity, separateness and directness, within which the dynamics of
modern war develops and is combined with specific technological applications. The main tool
and methods of iWar are also presented. | en |
