Abstract

Hybrid warfare is a war that will exist and dominate in the future, bearing in mind the reality of the threat of this war found almost all over the world by combining conventional and irregular war capabilities. Because these irregular wars lead to use by non-state actors, it is undeniable that their actions support, encourage, or participate in conventional conflicts if the wars have one goal with them. The situation and conditions of events occurring in various parts of the world today, we cannot easily judge the real actors/perpetrators of war, whether they are a country (state actor) or non-state (non-state actor). In addition, there are difficulties about what became the background of the war, which was mixed between political, ideological, economic and social interests etc. The dimensions of the war have also entered the realm of cyberspace (cyber) as a means of cyber warfare media (cyber warfare). Studying various domestic historical events and the development of these types of armed conflicts, it is necessary to be aware of threats of hybrid warfare towards Indonesia, this vigilance is based on the possibility that militant groups such as OPM, GAM, etc. will develop and seek political, financial and even weapons support from within and outside the country and Indonesia will also experience greater difficulties
