Nato is to build a dedicated cyber-warfare centre to cope with online attacks
against member states and their allies.
The Cooperative Cyber Defence Centre of Excellence will be built in Estonia,
which was the first country to suffer a
coordinated
national online attack.
The Centre will be staffed by experts from Estonia, Germany, Italy, Latvia,
Lithuania, Slovakia and Spain.
"The need for a cyber-defence centre is compelling," said General James
Mattis, Nato's Supreme Allied Commander Transformation, at the signing ceremony.
"It will help Nato defy and successfully counter the threats in this area."
The attacks on Estonia sparked interest in online warfare when the country,
which has pioneered electronic government, came under sustained attack from
computers around the world.
The attack is thought to have been the work of a flash mob of predominantly
Russian computer users protesting against the removal of a memorial in Estonia.
