The paper considers the concept of “information warfare”. We investigate its strategies
and give specific examples of their implementation. A number of actual proposals on
improving the Russian policy under the conditions of contemporary information warfare
are presented. We also discuss the necessity of changing the defense strategy to the offen-
sive one.
Keywords:
