A incorporação do poder cibernético ao militar: análise estadunidense do Governo Obama.

Abstract

The emergence of cyber space and the risks associated with it demonstrate that if a country wants to retain international power, ensure its survival, security and interests, it must necessarily develop cyber power. By linking it to the military power through the strategy of national security and defense, States are be able to overcome the threats of cyberspace, and to access its advantages. This work is specifically concerned with understanding how the United States of America is incorporating cybernetic power into the military, with the Obama Administration as a temporary cut. Through a descriptive qualitative exploratory research based on the realistic theory of International Relations and observing the National Security Strategy documents of 2010 and 2015 and the US Department of Defense's strategies for cyberspace in 2011 and 2015, it was perceived the US efforts to transform cyberspace into a domain to ensure that the conventional military forces are also capable of acting in it. Nevertheless, it is noteworthy that, although interlinked with other expressions of military power, the strategy for the development of cybernetic power is not being thought with the sole objective of complementing the conventional aspects of military power, nor is this strategy of incorporation cyberpower necessarily articulated to the other Forces, there is a preponderance in the documents for the view that as an independent domain, cyber space requires exclusive investments and a Force also exclusive, which is why the country created the Cyber National Mission Force. Therefore cyberpower is incorporated independently of the other Forces within the military power of the United States.
