The Cyber War Within the Syrian War

TLDRIn the Syrian war, battles are fought both on the ground and in cyberspace. The Syrian government and opposition groups deploy hackers to gain an edge in the conflict. Social media surveillance, malware attacks, and phishing techniques are used to monitor and target activists. There are also cyber militias aligned with the government, such as the Syrian Electronic Army, which carry out propaganda campaigns. As the war continues, the cyber space in Syria becomes increasingly dangerous and infected with malware.
