Abstract
Cyberspace, computers and networks, is now potential terrain of warfare. We describe some effective forms of deception in
cyberspace, and discuss how these deceptions are used in attacks. After a general assessment of deception opportunities in cyberspace,
we consider various forms of identity deceptions, denial-of-service attacks, Trojan horses, and several other forms of deception. We
then speculate on the directions in which cyber-attacks may evolve in the future.
