Opinion: Information security – new challenges and Georgia

By one of its definitions, hybrid war involves classical military actions as well as undermining activities, energy, economic and finance warfare and, most importantly, information warfare. This is the kind of hybrid war that Russian Federation is waging against Ukraine. However, in one of his articles, the Russian expert, Andrey Ilarionov mentioned, that rather from being just a conflict between two countries, the war between Russia and Ukraine is a full-scale confrontation between the West and Russia. Unfortunately, Georgia found itself on the front line of this fierce confrontation between civilizations and has hence become one of the hotspots of information warfare.
