Tech Insider reports that “there’s an unseen world war that has been fought for years with no clear battle lines, few rules of engagement, and no end in sight.”  

“But it’s not a shooting war; not a war where combatants have been killed or wounded — at least not yet.”  

“It’s a war that pits nations against each other for dominance in cyberspace, and the United States, like other nations employing professional hackers as “cyber soldiers,” sees it as a battlefield just like any other.”
