Cyberwar, Cyberterror and Cybercrime have been buzzwords for several years now. Despite the problems of finding useful definitions for modern IT security threats and so much criclejerking bullshit bingo going on, we have to think about the assessment of capabilities in the IT field.

However, unlike the assessment of classic military strength assessing the capabilities and powers of actors in the IT field is much more complicated and complex. In this talk I will introduce the first tools, methods and statistics to compare hacking capabilites and assess the »cyber fighting power« of different actors.
