Cyber warfare has opened up a new dimension of warfare in modern conflicts. The dangers are greater than ever as critical infrastructure, financial systems and personal data become targets on this digital battlefield. The aim of this work is to show the impact of cyber warfare through the example of the Russian-Ukrainian war. To understand the role of cyber in warfare it is necessary to understand Russian, Ukrainian and NATO cyber warfare doctrine, and utilisation of these on the battlefield. Understanding these tactics allows for better national defence of states, protection of civilian lives and ensuring the stability of the global digital infrastructure. Analysing the cyber dimension of this conflict helps to develop strategies to mitigate similar threats in future conflicts.
