Intelligence challenges in countering hybrid threats
Florian Coldea
Abstract
The subject of hybrid threats has been in focus for some time now, for both academia and practitioners in various security and defense-related fields, but research is still unfocused enough and opinions yet too divergent to allow for a joint understanding of the term, as is the case with other terms in the sphere of security, too (the easiest to mention being ”terrorism”). Our lack of a common understanding of the phenomenon with our closest allies is inevitably a weakness, in a world where many categories of threats are closely interconnected and tend to transgress
physical and virtual borders alike. Therefore, the need for a closer look at the concept is bound to lead us to more effective approaches in handling the consequences of hybrid threats.
