This report discusses how political events and emerging international situations will increasingly lead to cyber protests. Because the United States is a multicultural, world-leading nation it will suffer from attacks on culturally related sites and structures in the future. Generally, the most popularly targeted sites are those belonging to government, educational, commercial, and cultural institutions. However, any site with an exploitable vulnerability will be susceptible to a cyber attack. The infrastructure has been targeted in other countries in cyber protests and it is expected that it will eventually be targeted in the United States as well.
