Summary/Abstract: The analysis of current conflicts reveals the ascendant trend of cyber threats against critical infrastructure and political, economic and military environments, with emphasis on cyber-attacks targeting the national defense entities command and control systems, communication and information networks. The accelerated evolution and the virulence of cyber-attacks are considered by state-actors, alliances and international organizations through specific policies that promotes cyber security and cyber defense capacity building. To counter the sophisticated cyber operations perpetrated by some state and non-actors, it is necessary to approach and prioritize the “cyber warriors” shortcomings, taking into account that, within the current budgetary restraints, the majority of armed forces face difficulties with recruiting, training, development, and retaining of a performant cyber work force.
