Cyber war: Nick Harvey, armed forces minister, admitted cyber weapons are now an 'integral part' of Britain's armoury
網絡戰爭：武裝部隊部長尼克哈維承認，網絡武器現在是英國軍械庫'不可分割的一部分'

A cyber-weapons programme to counter growing threats to national security from cyberspace is being developed by the Government, it emerged today.
一項網絡武器計劃用以對付日益來自網絡空間的國家安全威脅，正在由政府開發，它今天浮現。
The scheme will provide the UK with a 'toolbox' of offensive options to fight online hackers targeting the country's critical services and government departments.
該計劃將提供給英國一個進攻選擇的'工具箱'，與瞄準國家的關鍵服務和政府部門的網上黑客作戰。
Armed forces minister Nick Harvey admitted that cyber-weapons have become 'an integral part of the country's armoury' as he admitted the programme exists.
武裝部隊部長尼克哈維承認，網絡武器現在是英國軍械庫'不可分割的一部分'，當他承認該計劃的存在時說。
'Action in cyberspace will form part of the future battlefield,' he told the Guardian.
'在網絡空間的行動將會形未來戰場的一部分，他告訴衛報。
'We need a toolbox of capabilities and that's what we are currently developing.'
'我們需要一個有功能的工具箱，而這正是我們目前正在發展的。'
The exact nature of the weapons being developed is being kept secret, but Mr Harvey confirmed they would be governed by the same rules that apply to the deployment of other military assets.
正在開發的武器的正確性質正被保密，但哈維先生證實他們將受到同樣的規範，適用於其它軍事資產的部署。
'The circumstances and manner in which we would use them are broadly analogous to what we would do in any other domain,' he added.

The minister said that digital networks were now 'at the heart of our transport, power and communications systems', and this reliance had 'brought the capacity for warfare to cyberspace'.

'The consequences of a well planned, well executed attack against our digital infrastructure could be catastrophic,' he said.
'With nuclear or biological weapons, the technical threshold is high. With cyber the finger hovering over the button could be anyone from a state to a student.'
The Cabinet Office and the Cyber Security Operations Centre at GCHQ have taken the lead on the project, with the possibility of the Ministry of Defence providing input in the future.
