In the past decades, many states have publicly established some sort of military cyber command which requires a sheer amount of time and resources. In this commentary for War on the Rocks, CSS' Max Smeets writes about the importance of a comprehensive, capable workforce and a functioning infrastructure, that is the processes, structures, and facilities needed to pull off an offensive cyber operation. Furthermore, he outlines that so-called zero-day exploits are not the only category that states should devote policy attention to.
