Cyber Statecraft: How South Africa Navigates Contested Cyberspace
Middle ground countries such as South Africa must navigate increasing divergence between the approaches of liberal democracies and authoritarian powers over use of the internet.
But what are South Africa’s international cyber security policies? And what is unique about the country’s approach to cyber statecraft – what knowledge does it have about the nature of cyber power? Dr Joseph Devanny, Senior Lecturer in National Security Studies at KCL, joins Jamie MacColl, Senior Research Fellow in Cyber and Tech at RUSI, to explain this and more.
This video is part of the Cyber Statecraft series sponsored by Dstl, the UKRI Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council and the Research Institute for Sociotechnical Cyber Security.
