Summary/Abstract: Technological and scientific changes in all areas of activity will also bring about changes in the security environment and may create strategic surprises that we are currently unaware of and misunderstood. The rapid development and rapid implementation of information and communication technology systems, networks and applications has led to the emergence of cyber space, which generates new forms of power, generically called by international relations specialists as “cyber-power”. In the current context, there is an increasing presence in cyberspace and the execution of a growing number of cyber operations by both state and non-state actors. Recent events on the international scene signal the intention of some states to boost the quantitative and qualitative development of military cyber capabilities. In this context, this communication identifies the constants, variables and transformation trends of the current security environment determined by the projection of cyber power.
