Abstract:
This article attempts to show how Blockchain Technology became one of
Estonia's cybersecurity strategies after the cyber-attacks that occurred in 2007,
allowing Estonia to show that they could strengthen their cyber security through
Offense-Defense Theory. This article will show the offensive behavior that makes
Estonia go on the defensive. In his explanation regarding Blockchain Technology
as an Estonian Cybersecurity Strategy, here will be shown the steps taken by
Estonia after the cyber-attack which was a response to the domination of Russian
offensive behavior which has a history due to the Bronze Night. Furthermore, this
article will show Blockchain Technology in the period 2012 to 2018 as a form of
Estonian defense behavior. Thus, it can be seen that with Blockchain Technology,
Estonia has become a security balancer both with Russia which is the most
rational cause for Estonia to strengthen its cyber security and with the outside
world, considering that the actors in cyber war cannot be determined.
