ABSTRACT:
Threat actors have started a disinformation process across the internet targeting the larger population, which mainly are intended to rise the mistrust of the population in the governing institutions and governmental actors. Dismantling these operations have proven to be a big challenge similar to cyberattacks which affect technological infrastructures. Even though some countries have taken a set of legal measures against disinformation and trolling many aspects have been left out and militarized trolling and the process of spreading false news is a phenomenon which can become more and more powerful.
Keywords: military trolls, cyber, cybersecurity, threats.
