The author examines the power of deception in the context of information operations in the modern hybrid battlespace. Examples discussed include the Normandy landings in World War Two (WWII) and the use of the Russian Maskirovka doctrine in the ongoing conflict in the Donbass regions. The author then discusses the information space as the new battlefield in which dominance is highly prized by the modern war-fighter. He adds that a democratic platform, with avenues for influence and exploitation by all parties, civilian or military, is a quagmire in which militaries globally have had to adapt operations and technologies to conduct information operations to increase situational awareness. Lastly, the author then examines the efforts in information operations that the Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) has undertaken today as part of the 3rd Generation transformation.
