The New Frontier of Warfare: Evaluating the Role of International Humanitarian Law in Cyber-Crimes

Abstract

    People & governments have become dependent on computer networks in the last few decades. Both the military & people use these networks to do things like shop online and control radars. A country's computer network system is very important from a military point of view in war. International Humanitarian Law is hard to follow when computers are used to help the military win a war. Schmidt (2017) there are at least two ways to look at whether or not IHL applies to cyber war. These ways of doing things are "permissive" and "restrictive." After looking at both of these ways of thinking, this article suggests that the most important thing to consider when applying the IHL to cyber-operation during a war is how it affects civilians.
