New Department of Defense Law of War Manual Chapter on Cyber Operations (updated)

The new DOD manual is the first since 1956 ([pdf](http://www.dod.mil/dodgc/images/law_war_manual15.pdf); 1,176 pages, with the Cyber Operations portion (Chapter XVI) spanning 15 pages in the pdf, from page 994 to 1009).

Professor Kristen Eichensehr (UCLA Law School) writing at JustSecurity [discusses](http://justsecurity.org/23960/opm-hack-dod-law-war-manual/) how the new manual’s provisions treat hacking incidents such as the OPM hack.
