Abstract
The Combat in the twenty first century is not only influenced by
unprecedented technological and technical innovations but also
characterized with progressive evolution of the art of warfighting. As the
human and material costs of wars are getting untenable, the reliance
seems to have shifted on cost-effective and result oriented strategies for
defeating the enemy. Consequently, the approaches termed as hybrid, 4th
generation, 5th generation, non-conventional, asymmetric and cyber
warfare have been gaining currency. Pakistan is also among those states
which are confronted with the challenge of hybrid war from its
adversaries, particularly India. The prevailing ethno-nationalistic
concerns, religious radicalization, political instability and socioeconomic issues are increasing the vulnerability of state against hybrid
threats. With hybrid threat emerging as a tangible challenge, the art of
perception management assumes vital significance. Given the
unprecedented technological advancement in the cyber domain, the
national security interests of Pakistan are increasingly linked with the
effective perception management strategies
