Abstract

Abstract Strategic information operations (IO) have normally been viewed as an issue above the military level. Nevertheless, they are critical both in shaping the larger operational environment and in providing a strategic initiative short of war. As such, they are crucial for military strategists.

Some long-term patterns and lessons learned in IO provide a useful template for both defensive and offensive IO campaigns.
