Cyber Wargaming: Research and Education for Security in a Dangerous Digital Worl

Description: Cyber Wargaming by Nina A. Kollars, Benjamin H. Schechter, Frank L. Smith, Andrew W. Reddie, Ruby E. Booth, Bethany L. Goldblum, Kiran Lakkaraju A first-of-its-kind theoretical overview and practical guide to wargame designGovernment, industry, and academia need better tools to explore threats, opportunities, and human interactions in cyberspace. The interactive exercises called cyber wargames are a powerful way to solve complex problems in a digital environment that involves both cooperation and conflict. Cyber Wargaming is the first book to provide both the theories and practical examples needed to successfully build, play, and learn from these interactive exercises.The contributors to this book explain what cyber wargames are, how they work, and why they offer insights that other methods cannot match. The lessons learned are not merely artifacts of these games—they also shed light on how people interpret and interact with cyberspace in real life. This book covers topics such as cyber action during conventional war, information effects in conflict scenarios, individual versus group decision-making, the intersection of cyber conflicts and nuclear crises, business resilience, emerging technologies, and more.Cyber Wargaming will be a vital resource for readers interested in security studies and wargame design in higher education, the military, and the private sector.

Kollars and Benjamin H. SchechterIndex Contributors Review The primary goals that Smith, Kollars, and Schechter want to achieve with Cyber Wargaming are to show that wargames can improve decision-making about cyber and other emergent technologies, to provide examples of games recently played, and to let the designers talk about what they tried to do and how they went about it. Cyber Wargaming succeeds in that. * The Cipher Brief * Promotional "An invaluable contribution to the wargaming field that drives home the importance of cyber wargaming and offers clear recommendations for how to better incorporate cyber into wargames." —Becca Wasser, senior fellow and lead of The Gaming Lab, Center for a New American Security Details ISBN164712395X Author Kiran Lakkaraju Pages 240 Publisher Georgetown University Press ISBN-13 9781647123956 Format Paperback Imprint Georgetown University Press Place of Publication Washington, DC Country of Publication United States Year 2024 Publication Date 2024-01-02 Subtitle Research and Education for Security in a Dangerous Digital World US Release Date 2024-01-02 Alternative 9781647123949 Edited by Benjamin H.
