Chapter 22 - Construction and Development of Cyberspace Forces

Section 1 Cyberspace Power Construction and Development Trends
Section 2 Cyberspace Capability Requirements Under the New Era Conditions
Section 3 Main Measures for the Construction and Development of Cyberspace Forces

Cyberspace has become a new space for military conflict, and cyberspace power, as a new combat force
that adapts to the transformation of war patterns, has become an important part of the country's military
power. Cyberspace power construction includes the construction and development of cyber warfare forces,
command systems, means and resources, military strategy theory, institutional mechanisms, and related
laws.

Section One: Cyberspace Power Construction and Development Trend
From the perspective of the development trend of the military of various countries, as a new type of military
force, the construction of cyberspace power has become a priority area of military competition. Under the
principles of demand-driven, technologically promoted, offensive and defensive, people-oriented,
coordinated development, and focus on efficiency, it shows a development trend that is closely related to the
development of traditional space power and has unique characteristics.

1. Towards a critical combat force
The development of cyberspace power has gone through three stages. The first stage is to provide
information support for traditional operations. The main business is to use cyberspace, and the core is to
operate and maintain the C4ISRK system to maintain uninterrupted, high-efficiency and high-quality network
information interaction. During this period, the various U.S. military services established computer
emergency response centers, which became the prototype of cyberspace forces. The second stage is to
deal with the general confrontation of cybercrime and hacker attacks. During this period, the construction of
networked military in major countries in the world has become common practice.
