Abstract
This chapter argues for a global strategic framework of operational capacity and resilience in the field of cyber-security reflected toward NATO’s current and future policies on security resilience. The chapters examines and discusses interoperability of aims and objectives in cyber-security as a global necessity so we may define law, rules and regulations, policy attributions, and authorities. It analyzes possible structures that are needed to be put in place on a global scale to defend security structures and members of the Alliance, reflecting issues of cyber-security. The chapter aims to define current threats and future challenges. Cyber-attacks are elements of asymmetrical or hybrid threats. The future of e-safety lays at the global estimation of cooperation against specified or approximate threats.
