THE LEGAL REGIME OF CYBER WARFARE

Povzetek

Cyber warfare represents a significant evolution in combat methods during armed conflicts. This research is important because it reveals the modern technologies employed in armed conflicts and distinguishes between electronic warfare directed against states in peacetime and cyber warfare in times of armed conflict. This research aims to explore the applicability of the rules and provisions of international humanitarian law, as set out in the 1949 Geneva Conventions and their protocols. In this article, we will discuss the issue of determining the legal framework for cyber armed conflicts in light of the absence of an international treaty governing this type of conflict, especially since it often violates the rights of many protected groups, both public and private.
