This Research Handbook provides a rigorous analysis of cyberwarfare, a widely misunderstood field of contemporary conflict and geopolitical competition. Gathering insights from leading scholars and practitioners, it examines the actors involved in cyberwarfare, their objectives and strategies, and scrutinises the impact of cyberwarfare in a world dependent on connectivity. The Research Handbook on Cyberwarfare interrogates cyberwarfare as a form of military intelligence statecraft that seeks to exploit digital systems for operational and strategic advantage. Chapter authors address cyberwarfare in its conceptual, historical, operational and strategic dimensions, and explore the application of international law, norms, ethics and arms control to this area of conflict. They pose crucial questions about the utility of cyberwarfare and its effects on society and citizens, establishing foundations for future research on the topic as a fact of international life.

The cyber threat has become an increasingly important issue in recent years. Although the problem is global, it affects some countries more than others. This is the case in Brazil, which has become a focal point for cyber attacks. The main goal of this article is to analyze the Brazilian state's responses to high-profile cybercrimes. The article provides a contextual overview of how significant incidents have shaped Brazil's legislative response to cybercrime, particularly in the General Data Protection Law and the Carolina Dieckmann Law. It contributes to a research agenda focused on analyzing how and why some activities are criminalized while others are not, and also helps to understand the priorities and perceptions of different states.
