In current peace and security issues, a paradigm shift has occurred in the sense that the role of technological and scientific progress has increased explosively, especially the rapid development of information technology (IT) and artificial intelligence (AI). Scientific communication addresses the significance, potential of IT, as well as the challenges it presents in terms of peace and security. From a military point of view, the rapid pace of technological progress makes it imperative to follow and adapt to the constantly evolving landscape and also to make adjustments in the structure and training of military forces. The central argument for preventing cyberwarfare and halting the offensive cyber strategies of the military and intelligence services is that cyberweapons are, in many ways, as dangerous and inhumane as biological and chemical weapons, which the international community already considers prohibited. The issues of cyberwarfare and cyberspace are open to discussion, as disputes over the definitions of crucial terms such as cyberweapons or cyberspace remain unresolved. Consequently, in times of increasing militarization of cyberspace, the application of international law to it remains a challenge.
