Despite its rising relevance, the cyber crisis is a largely unexplored phenomenon empirically and conceptually. This article suggests that cyber crises can be understood specifically as transboundary crises. Through the comparative analysis of two cases of cyber crises, Estonia 2007 and UK 2017, the study investigates whether the time gap and the difference in cyberattack type between the cases (untargeted ransomware vs. targeted DDoS) correlate with variation in transboundary crisis features and crisis management challenges during the performance of central crisis management tasks in the national settings of the cases. The analysis identifies some variation between the cases in terms of transboundary crisis features but finds that the cases entailed similar prominent crisis management challenges during the performance of central crisis management tasks. Implications are discussed in terms of how to advance our understanding of cyber crises and the practical strategic management requirements they entail.

将网络危机概念化,将网络危机概念化

尽管网络危机的相关性越来越高,但从经验和概念上讲,网络危机在很大程度上是一种未经探索的现象。本文建议网络危机可以具体理解为跨界危机。通过对爱沙尼亚 2007 年和英国 2017 年两个网络危机案例的比较分析,研究调查了案例(非目标勒索软件与目标 DDoS)之间的时间差距和网络攻击类型的差异是否与跨界危机特征和危机的变化相关在国家背景下执行中央危机管理任务期间的管理挑战。分析确定了案例之间在跨界危机特征方面的一些差异,但发现这些案例在执行中央危机管理任务期间带来了类似的突出危机管理挑战。讨论了如何促进我们对网络危机及其带来的实际战略管理要求的理解的影响。,尽管网络危机的相关性越来越高,但从经验和概念上讲,网络危机在很大程度上是一种未经探索的现象。本文建议网络危机可以具体理解为跨界危机。通过对爱沙尼亚 2007 年和英国 2017 年两个网络危机案例的比较分析,研究调查了案例(非目标勒索软件与目标 DDoS)之间的时间差距和网络攻击类型的差异是否与跨界危机特征和危机的变化相关在国家背景下执行中央危机管理任务期间的管理挑战。分析确定了案例之间在跨界危机特征方面的一些差异,但发现这些案例在执行中央危机管理任务期间带来了类似的突出危机管理挑战。讨论了如何促进我们对网络危机及其带来的实际战略管理要求的理解的影响。
