Course questionnaire: who decides that a cyberattack is an act of war?

Every question, its answer and the reasoning

1. What did the 2021 clauses provide, and the 2023 A versions no longer provide, as long as no official attribution had been made?

2. A policy carries LMA 5565A, and the amounts in paragraphs 2.1 and 2.2 were left blank. What does it cover for a state cyber operation with no war and no impacted state?

3. Under the attribution clause of the A versions, the official attribution of which government is among the evidence to consider?

4. True or false: in the Merck case, the New Jersey Appellate Division held that NotPetya was not the work of a state.

5. In the claim worked step by step, why is the loss of the Lyon servers not excluded by LMA 5567A, whoever carried out the operation?

6. True or false: an underwriting note stating "standard war exclusion" is enough to reread the decision after a loss.
