“…For instance, wars like the ones in Ukraine and Syria reflect how social media is used for communication purposes next to, e.g., intelligence information gathering, influencing public perception through techniques like propaganda, attacking the opposition or launching aggressive online campaigns, driving division and polarization, and building psychological deterrence through trolling, harassment, and personal attacks (Chen, Chen & Xia, 2022). Another example is the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic which through its digital presence and impact scale received its corresponding digital name Infodemic seeing the superabundance of information regarding concepts and events surrounding it, e.g., nature of the virus, its effects, vaccination types and campaigns, unknown and unforeseen effects of vaccines, and relation between the virus, vaccination, and general effects affecting people (WHO, 2020;Pérez-Escolar, 2021;Europol, 2021;Ivendi, 2022;Chockalingam & Maathuis, 2022). Hence, while defending mechanisms should be properly designed, developed, and deployed, they should consider a security awareness goal on existing and possible future threats plus the necessity of protecting (socio-ethical) values of humans and systems (EU Commission, 2022b;Maathuis & Chockalingam, 2022c).…”
