Individual users and organisations need to be warned about the latest face of warfare that is not only being played out in the military networks, but also on the Internet and cyberspace. Consequently, Network Warfare has various facets which are often difficult to distinguish between. This paper builds on the field of Network Warfare and contains the motivation for determining a Network Warfare Capability. The motivation and requirements for determining a Network Warfare Capability are explored in this paper. This helps to recognise important considerations for determining a Network Warfare Capability. Some of the requirements are intricate and required further discussion. The extended discussion served to describe some of the requirements in greater detail. A noteworthy requirement of portraying offensive and defensive techniques is elaborated on through the use of UML diagrams. This paper, thus describes the importance of determining a Network Warfare Capability and serves as an introduction to future work in which a model to determine a Network Warfare Capability is proposed.
