Cyberspace operations add to the traditional domains of warfare of land, sea, and air. “Cyberspace has emerged as a challenging domain in modern warfare. Unlike territorial limits in the domains of land, sea, and air, cyberspace is a global common and hence has shared sovereignty,” the MoD said. Hostile actions in cyberspace can impact the nation’s economy and the nation’s ability to defend itself.
