Summary/Abstract: Amid growing threats online, NATO made a ground-breaking declaration at the Wales summit, allowing the invocation of Article 5 in the event of the most serious cyberattacks. In the context of next year’s Warsaw summit, the implementation of the Enhanced Cyber Defence Policy requires not only a determination of the forms of collective response to different kinds of cyberattacks, but also strengthening of the Allies’ defence capabilities and further development of NATO’s assistance instruments.
