Sažetak
Cyberspace has become a critical component of national security. This is confirmed by the fact that it has been defined as the fifth dimension of warfare. Contemporary military doctrines recognize the terminological shift from the concept of the “battlefield” to “battlespace”. The increased digitization of the Navy opens numerous opportunities. At the same time this threatens the security of its assets – the data, systems, and people. Previously the information and communication systems were isolated but with the emergence of the Internet they became increasingly interconnected and thus more vulnerable. As the importance of effective communication between different naval segments increases, it is necessary to adequately protect them. The paper provides an overview of the trends that have led to the increased importance of cyber security in the Naval Domain. Next, the position and role of cyber capabilities as well as the importance of their further development are pointed out. Authors note typical attack vectors over which systems can be compromised followed by categorization of cyber threats. Furthermore, an overview of recent naval cyber incidents is presented. The importance of protecting all components of cyber security is emphasized in order to develop a more resilient environment and reduce the consequences of potential attacks, stressing the importance of the human factor. As the digital age has also influenced modern warfare, the paper elaborates issues of national strategies and military doctrines with special reference to the protection of the national cyber space in the Republic of Croatia. Finally, authors provide their expectations about the development of the studied area with recommendations for improving the current state of affairs.
