Abstract:

The world has entered the age of cyber warfare, where digital devices can jeopardize the livelihoods of human beings and disrupt the stability of nation-states. Nations have undergone digital transformations, leading to a drastic change in the way governments interact. It is imperative to establish effective strategies in order to handle cyber conflicts and shape the future of global diplomacy by fostering trust in cyber technology. The new generation of government officers must develop new skills, with the support of dynamic public policies, to tackle emerging challenges. This includes the realm of diplomacy, which serves as the foundation for cultivating trust. Diplomatic activities play a crucial role in mitigating conflicts, reducing hostile reactions, fostering understanding, promoting dialogue and minimizing interference. However, the evolving cyber landscape necessitates the modification of long-standing diplomatic paradigms, particularly as the current practices seem to be failing the global community. This presents an opportunity to construct a new framework that incorporates cyber diplomacy.
