The more complicated the societies become, the more virtual communication grow. As conflict is one aspect of communication, we can find growing virtual war as well. Virtual war is more dependent on propaganda, so it is a bloodless war.
In virtual war, any data about the enemy, including their weak points, deficiencies and wrong doings in every field, can be used against it. Therefore, information in this war is the most powerful means. This war can be done through different ways. It may be either Cyber Attack approach or Cyber Defense approach.
In Cyber Attack approach, Cyber war crashes the systems of data, communications and intelligence of the enemy. Disabling enemy’s systems may be done through hacking, blocking or transferring banking accounts of major officials in enemy country.
Cyber Defense in virtual war is mostly done by Net war. In this way by launching new sites and weblogs which support the idea of attacker, its idea could be prevalent through public and be used as a means in confronting the enemy. Weakened enemy has less room to show its superiority. Creating a distorted image from enemy and questioning its credibility pushes it toward defeat.
These ways in compare to real wars that need deploying troops to another country, usually miles away, the problem of convincing people and other opposite groups within the attacker country, investing much more budget and suffering death and casualty poll and day to day justifying the aim through mass media, have less difficulties.
