But the assurances of a military response tied to Article 5 are not easily converted to the digital world, Libicki said.

"In most categories of war, you have to defeat the other guy shooting back, but in the cyberworld you can do a lot just by building up your defenses," he said. "When you put cyberwarfare into the template of conventional warfare, you end up drawing a lot of conclusions that don't make sense."

But Dave Merkel, CTO of cybersecurity firm FireEye, said he isn't surprised by Friday's announcement, given the severe damage that can be caused by a cyberattack. Still, he said, governments may find it difficult to attribute the origin of a digital offensive.

While both Libicki and Merkel agreed that many NATO members could determine the origin of an attack, those governments may not be eager to reveal their intelligence and technological capabilities.

Yet even nongovernmental firms are sometimes able to positively identify cyberattacks: In 2013, Mandiant (since acquired by FireEye) released a report detailing a wide body of evidence that a Chinese government group had conducted a widespread cyber-espionage campaign. China denies engaging in cyber-espionage.

NATO's biggest problem with enforcing a hard line against cyberattacks may simply be the wide proliferation of such warfare.

A single hacker can launch hundreds of varied attacks in a short period of time, meaning that governments may find it nearly impossible to identify, attribute and respond to cyberstrikes in a timely manner, Merkel said.

NATO draws a hard line in the cybersand

NATO might be losing its focus as it tries to strengthen its roles with both the crisis in Ukraine and rise of the terrorist group ISIS in the Middle East, according to foreign policy analysts.

Luke Coffey and Frank Gaffney told FoxNews.com the military alliance is slowly forgetting its principle mission in protecting the defense of its member states.

Coffey is the Margaret Thatcher Fellow at the Heritage Foundation and Gaffney serves as the founder and president for the national security think tank, Center for Security Policy.

There is a growing call from critics that the organization doesnt have a role in fighting ISIS, now called Islamic State.

I think NATO needs to get back to some of its roots, back to the basics, said Coffey. ISIS, without a doubt, poses a threat to the members inside NATO, but I think as an alliance this is not a challenge NATO should take on.

He instead proposes the U.S. lead a coalition of the willing" that could include NATO members, but should not fall under their jurisdiction because as we saw in Libya in 2011, when you get 28 members around a table it slows down the process and with this fight against ISIS youre going to need quick and rapid decision-making .

- Luke Coffey

Gaffney sees NATO as being a pale shadow of itself as result of reduction in defense spending by the U.S. and its allies. [Before] we go into Iraq or Syria with NATO, I think we best should think about rebuilding NATOs capabilities to protect their own territory.

Only four of NATO's 28 member states, including the U.S., have met the pledge to meet or exceed 2 percent of their country's GDP on military spending.

NATO members are currently debating how to possibly boost their support for Ukraine's military to fight pro-Russian rebels.
