1st LD Writethru: NATO recognizes cyberspace as operational domain

Xinhua, July 9, 2016 Adjust font size:

NATO leaders on Friday agreed to recognize cyberspace as a new operational domain, NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg said at a press conference at Warsaw Summit.

"Today we recognized cyber as a new operational domain, in addition to land, air and sea," said Stoltenberg.

"This means better protecting our networks and our missions and operations, with more focus on cyber training and planning," he said.

He added that NATO Allies have pledged to strengthen their own cyber defences, and share more information. Endit
