Sažetak
Article presents trends in American political and military circles and in mass media to convince general public that cyber Pearl Harbor already took place and that cyberwar has begun. Aside of such exaggerations the exposure of U.S. vital infrastructure to cyber attacks makes cyber security issues to be of utmost importance. Military experts are discussing possibility of strategic deterrence in cyberspace understood as domain of warfare. As rising economic and military power China is perceived by American political elite as challenger to U.S. hegemony, especially in cyberspace. Putting cyber security issues in the center of their diplomatic efforts but refraining their starting positions unchanged, two countries are entering in new Cold War era.
