Abstract: In recent years, many NATO member states have reported violations of cyber sovereignty, accusing the People’s Republic of China (PRC). PRC has its own vision of cyberspace, employing technological advances to strengthen its position as a global leader. This article addresses NATO’s cyber security challenges, analysing how Beijing’s actions influence international politics and cyber stability. Utilizing a combination of qualitative and quantitative analysis, the research explores the ways in which the PRC pursues its geopolitical goals in cyberspace, as well as NATO’s response measures. From the analysis of cyber security policies, we draw insights into the strategic directions each side is pursuing. The article also assesses the longterm impact of cyber tensions between the PRC and NATO and exposes the importance of international collaboration in promoting a stable and secure cyberspace. The conclusions emphasize the need for a coordinated and proactive approach to counter cyber threats and strengthen the Alliance’s cyber defence.
