After cyber attacks on Estonia in a spat, Russia deployed cyber war weapons against Georgia isolating the country, in the first ever cyber blockade. While the debate rages over the use of the term “cyber war” versus cyber sabotage or cyber terrorism, many countries, around the world have formed specific divisions with significant budgets for cyber war units, both offensively and defensively. These factors combine to make Egypt highly vulnerable to cyber war threats; it has a serious need to develop cyber war defenses. In the last two years, there has been sporadic coverage of a draft Cyber Crimes Law, a law that tackles cyber security and indirectly cyber war. Rather it must be focused on cyber war threats such as the detection of logic bombs, cyber threats that can lay dormant for years.
