Abstract

The North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), by its nature, has always been aimed at strengthening the security of its members. Accordingly, the defense policy developed by NATO was quite successful in most areas, until it faced a new challenge regarding cyber security. Due to the newness of the field, countries and international organizations are now studying possible ways to deal with cyber threats. Among them, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization has also been trying to develop a successful cyber defense policy since the emergence of this threat. The paper explores the evolution of cyber security and the operation of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. To better understand each stage of the latter, the large-scale cyberattacks that set the precedent and made future cyber threats from specific countries predictable today, are discussed.
