| dc.description.abstract | With the expansion of computer networks, which allowed a more accelerated communication, broke boundaries in the dissemination of information, its use to facilitate the daily life of a large portion of the world population, allied to these facilities the use of the State in Provide service to the population, occurring a great debureaucratization of services and facilitating public access to these services. This popularization has created a network of coordinating countries in allocating remote systems, services and in some cases the government structure itself, with transmission of sensitive data and financial operations. As the popularization of access has gradually increased over the years, the ways of attempting to corrupt this network have increased, being in a playful manner, as a challenge, for illicit means and others as linked to small groups, involving only one actor, Today, its use in a terrorist manner by more radical groups and by countries as a form of defense and prevention. After incidents that occurred in some places of the world, it was evidenced that these actions in the cybernetic world directly affect goods, services and even the sovereignty of countries, raising the way of coping and prevention. Everyday examples of sensitive data theft, attempted access to a database of government structures and large corporations, exposes that a successful attack or interruption of services can cause, where the ordinary citizen will always be the most injured. These activities entered the agenda, as here in Brazil, in national defense strategies, predicting that the wars in the future will come out of what is known today as conventional warfare, the one where the clashes occur in the physical plane, but rather occurring in the midst cybernetic, with equal or greater lethality. This bibliographic research presents a study on the perspective of coordinated and asymmetric attacks, under the aegis of an ideology, cause or manifest of a self-styled group, which through the computer network, launches an attack that aims to Cause the instability of data traffic and its essential services in a nation or continent, differentiating from a hacker attack, cyber activism or cyber-crime and analyze the positioning of Brazil in this context of global sphere. | |
