Create 400-word policy-oriented brief making a recommendation on how conventionally ‘small’ states could best exploit the cyber domain to achieve political ends.
A ‘small’ state is a state with limited conventional military capability and/or capacity to challenge great powers, which is seeking to achieve strategic objectives with a limited human, political or financial burden (eg Arab Gulf states, Qatar , Iran, Switzerland, Scandinavian states, Baltic states, Central Asian states, Nigeria, Kenya, North Korea, Taiwan etc). You should consider the geo-strategic environment in the 21st century of being globalised, privatised, securitised and mediatised, and determine what instrument/activity in the cyber domain (sabotage, espionage or subversion) a small state should develop to boost its ability to achieve strategic ends.
You should also consider the following questions:
• What type of strategic end can be achieved as opposed to conventional levers of power?
• Can cyber power ever be a standalone platform, or does it require small states to nurture alternative levers of power that operate in conjunction with cyber?
