OPINION: The Russian cyber threat is here to stay and NATO needs to understand it
NATO has only invoked Article 5 – which triggers a collective response – once and that was after the 9/11 attacks.
Even if allies wanted to trigger Article 5 over cyber operations, disagreements about the definitions of threats, origins of attacks, and pain thresholds in cyberspace can derail the process. Collective retaliation requires a unanimous vote across NATO; building unity across these points is nearly impossible for most cyber activity.
FILE – NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg speaks to the press ahead of a meeting of NATO Foreign Affairs Ministers to be held on Nov. 30-Dec.1, at the NATO headquarters, in Brussels, Belgium, Friday, Nov. 26, 2021. Concentrating only on acts of war comes at the expense of addressing the cumulative costs of low-level cyber threats over time. It leads to an overreliance on cyber deterrence or defensive whack-a-mole strategies, neither of which are sustainable.
