"Even in the Tsarist period, Russia had a robust secret police and counterintelligence apparatus, so the Soviets in 1913 already had a lot to work with," said Geers.

Today, this 100-year-old history of information security and warfare translates into a laser like focus in the cyber arena. US cyber warriors focus on vulnerabilities, plugins and holes in networks that can be exploited.

But in Russia, cyber vulnerability is seen as merely a "means to an end," according to Geers.

In the space between cyber security, favored by the West, and information security, favored by the East, Russia and China have left the US behind.
