The Task:
Part 1 : Presentation
This assignment is a 15-minute presentation, reflecting critically on one strategic issue in cybersecurity. It will contribute 50 per cent of your module mark.
You may choose which issue you want to reflect on. The following list provides some example issues, which you may choose to focus on (note that this list is not exhaustive, and you may choose a different issue):
• ‘Cyber’ as a strategic lever of power
• Power diffusion in the cyber domain
• The blurring lines between offensive and defensive use of cyber power
• The attribution issue in the cyber domain.
In your presentation, you should discuss the issue conceptually in the context of strategic discourse in the 21st century before undertaking a more empirical examination of the issue. You should use two empirical examples (either actual real-life examples or potential future scenarios) to illustrate your points. Also, you should be able to demonstrate your subject knowledge in reference to at least one core reading in the literature.
You are also required to submit the scriipt (or notes) that you used to record your presentation. You should note that it is the presentation that will be graded, not the notes you submit in support of your assignment. They are intended to support the module tutor when marking your presentation.
Part 2: Policy paper:
This assignment is a 1,500-word policy paper – which you must write using the mandatory “memo template” at the attachments . It will contribute 50 per cent of your module mark.
You should choose a case study of Russian use of cyber power and write a policy paper for your chosen country’s national security adviser which is Mohammed bin Ahmad Al-Musnad, National Security Advisor to the Amir of Qatar ( State of Qatar ) , making recommendations for how to best deter against this type of subversion.
