Cyber defense

Many terms relating to the cyber domain are currently controversial. There is no single globally accepted glossary of cyber-related terms and taxonomy, and therefore, most studies associated with cyberspace and cyber defense are required to prepare their own lists of definitions.
Significant dysfunctions ensue from this lack of global consensus on many issues related to the cyber domain The lack of a common global perception of the cyber domain produces different perspectives in the analysis and study of cyberspace, and, in particular, in military operations in cyberspace, the offshoot of which is the formulation of doctrines, definitions and taxonomies with different approaches, which in some cases are incompatible.
The confusing–and sometimes contradictory–information about matters regarding the cyber domain hinders decision-making in cyber defense-related issues, which, in many cases, results in decisions that do not fulfill the real need.
The lack of a global consensus multiplies the different visions on how to organize national cyber defense structures, consequently hindering the much-needed national and international cooperation in the cyber defense domain. While some nations have chosen to create a single component command subordinated to the defense staff, some have opted to create a branch within the ministry of defense, a unit that jointly runs cyber defense and CIS, or a cyber defense unit subordinated to the military or national intelligence services.
Different definitions and taxonomies fuel conflicts in the assignment of tasks, causing two concerns tasks that are left undone due to not having identified the responsible entity clearly and precisely, and tasks in dispute between different organizations, creating conflicts and duplication of efforts and consequently, lack of efficiency.
For all these reasons, it is important to reach a global consensus in the definitions of the most relevant terms linked to the cyberspace domain and, in particular, to cyberspace as a domain of operations.
