Examining the effects of cyber threats to transformation in defence plannings in line with the changing paradigms

Today's security environment, especially with Cold War Era which is admitted a milestone on a global scale, has quietly gone beyond the conventional definitons and environments, has gained different qualifications. The threats that caused to change, completely replaced; iams, strategies, reactions, planning concepts, ipmlementation methods, actors, usage of technology and geographic environment has been different than past has been encountered with very different ways. It had also reached to asymmetrical dimensions by leaving from symmetrical plane. In this context, it's possible to mention that the "uncertainty" notion is in the basis of defence plannings of today and future. The fast of change and transformation in international systemhas started to effect the whole process from peace time, mainly possibilities and capabilities that has been need to have. With the extraordinary, unconventional defence perceptions that has been required to develop the skills which is compatible to different and quick thinking, sudden and unexpected situations, new threat types, so the paradigm shifts have become inevitable. The changes and transformations that was lived in the fast run of technology and world of information, had added a new dimension to the asymmetrical types which was a basis of the paradigm shifts: Cyber Threats. The addiction to the cyber space has increased day by day. So, since the Cyber Threats has been able to operate in a very wide area and reach to more devastating effects than the conventional attacks, it should be given a priority in defence plannings. Within the stated issues, the aim of the study is to explain the needs in the basis of changes which was occured that caused to paradigm shifts by mentioning the milestones in historical process and to present the situation of the cyber threats in defence plannings which is a type of asymmetrical threats. Also it had been tried to make an assessment about the effects of cyber threats to the defence planning understandings in the scope of the strategies, missions and responsibilities about planning, organizations of Turkey and the other countries were choosen with accessible datas.
