Today, cyberattacks have become the norm, transforming how we think about war and international conflict as a whole.

As cyberwarfare has evolved, Chinese-linked cyberattacks have increased.

The list of countries that have accused China of cyberwarfare is lengthy and includes Australia, Canada, India, Japan, Taiwan, the Vatican, and the US. The US Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Agency recently warned every organization and international partner to take urgent action to understand the tactics, techniques, and procedures used by Chinese-supported bad actors.

Once again, we can see how countries turn to cyberwarfare using digital tools to shape global world order and regional conflicts, or put pressure on certain issues.

As complex as cyberwarfare can be, and as significant as its impacts are, the unfortunate truth is that for governments that are rich in resources, cyberwarfare is an increasingly easy-to-access weapon that they can leverage for their own interests.

Time will tell how these advances in cyberwarfare will influence the future of international relations among the world's superpowers, but one thing is clear.
