SİBER SAVAŞI YENİDEN DÜŞÜNMEK: ZAMANSIZ, KURALSIZ VE SINIRSIZ

Öz

Sibernetikteki gelişmeler, yaşamın her alanında uzun erişimli değişiklikler meydana getirmiştir. Böylece, 1950’lerden sonraki bilimsel-teknolojik ilerlemeler, ulusal güvenliğin de kendisinden oldukça etkilendiği, “bilgi devrimi”ne yol açmıştır. Bilgi-işlem alanındaki hızlı gelişme, siber alem olarak bilinen yeni bir fantastik dünya yaratmıştır. Bir fenomen olarak siber alem, büyük imkan ve avantajlarının yanında bilinmedik riskleri de içerisinde barındırma potansiyeline sahiptir. Hepsi siber alem ile ilgili olmak üzere üç ana kısım mevcuttur: teknolojiler, siyasalar ve anlaşmazlıklar. Sanal bir siber savaş veya herhangi bir ülkenin vatandaşlarına karşı girişilebilecek bireysel bir siber saldırının yapabileceği gerçek hasarın analizi için, bu fenomeni tam olarak anlayabilmemize yardımcı olabilecek türden bazı etkileri analiz, bunun Pratik sonuçları ile başlamak temel bir gerekliliktir. Siber alem birbiriyle çelişkili bir çok konu içerdiğinden, aslında tamemen gizli bir alanda yeni savaşma normları, araçları ve teknikleri üretmek oldukça zor bir konudur. Siber saldıranlar, kendilerinin kim olduğunu belirtmez ve kurbanlar da kendilerinin saldırılara açık olduğunu kabule pek yanaşmazlar. Bu çerçevede, bu çalışma özellikle zamansız, kuralsız ve sınırsız özelliklere sahip siber savaşı, siber alem fenomeni bağlamında, tarihsel, içerik, ilgili yeni gelişen siyasalar ve ulusal güvenlik sorunuyla olan ilişkisine odaklanarak inceleyecektir.

RETHINKING CYBER WARFARE: TIMELESS, NORMLESS AND UNCONSTRAINED

Öz

Improvements in cybernetics have made likely far reaching shifts in all areas of life. Thus, the scientific-technological developments after 1950s gave rise to “the information revolution” from which national security has quite been affected as well. The rapid growth in the fields of computing created a new realm of fantasy called cyberspace. As a phenomenon, cyberspace has the potential for enormous avails and advantages as well as unpredictable risks. There are three major dimensions all associated with cyberspace: technologies, policies and disputes. In order to analyze the real damage that a hypothetical cyber-war or individual act of cyber warfare could do to the citizens of any nation coming under attack, it is fundamental to begin with some reflections which will help us reach a full understanding of the phenomenon, and its related practical implications as well as impacts. Since cyberspace comprises many complicating matters, it is a further difficulty of developing new combative techniques, tools and norms in an area that is inherently secretive. Cyber-attackers do not announce who they are and the victims may not want to admit having been vulnerable. By this view, this research will specifically examine timeless, normless and unconstrained cyber warfare by rethinking its history, content, associated emerging policies and focus on the question of national security in light of the cyberspace phenomenon.
