This article explores the institutional development of the cyberspace domain in Colombia and its impact on civil-military relations in the country. An analysis of primary and secondary sources is used to define cyberspace and identify the cyber threats within it. It also describes civil-military relations in Colombia and the institutional framework of national cyberspace security and defense. Contrary to convention, in this case, it is evident that the initiative emerged from the country's civil sector, promoting greater participation of this segment in the field of security and defense. Thus, the cybersecurity and cyber defense agenda can be used to spearhead the rethinking of civil-military relations.

Keywords : civil-military relations; cybercrime; cyber defense; cybernetics; cybersecurity; data security.
