States like the United States and China have created special government military units dedicated to dealing with cybersecurity. While the US has not made an offensive use of cyberwarfare, it has acknowledged using it as a tool for espionage and intelligence gathering. Cyberattacks can also be carried out by nonstate actors such as hacktivists and criminal organizations, not just governments. Finally, although China has been accused of carrying out cyberattacks against other states, it is not the only state known to engage in cyberwarfare.
