Title NATIONAL SECURITY IN THE AGE OF CYBERSPACE: A CASE STUDY OF PAKISTAN

Author(s) Muhammad Aslam

Abstract Pakistan is a least prepared country against cyber warfare from hostile nations/elements. Cyber warfare is a domain that poses major challenge to the national security of Pakistan. Indeed, the digital domain determines the defeat and triumph of rival parties whether it’s in politics, business, or battlefield. More so, the enemy in cyber domain is invisible and unpredictable, therefore, it becomes very hard for nation states to identify the actual enemy. Although there is no dearth of literature in this field, however there seems insufficient scholarly literature on the case study of Pakistan. The main objective of the research is to evaluate the challenges and threats faced by the national security of Pakistan in the Age of Cyberspace and recommend viable solutions to protect cyberspace to meet future challenges. Moreover, this research is an attempt to make an addition to the existing body of knowledge while comprehending cyber challenges to national security of Pakistan and its response to mitigate such threats. The thesis discusses as to how Pakistan should carefully complete its cyber threat mapping, and craft a new strategy to overcome such threats.
