Abstract: With the frequent occurrence of major network security incidents, network security has gradually evolved from a technical issue that IT experts are concerned about to an international security and national security issue. From a security perspective, a cyber crisis is an emergency situation that is triggered by a major cyber security incident, conventional technical responses are insufficient, and requires decision-making and handling under limited time and limited information conditions. In addition to the common characteristics of crises, it is technologically induced, Characteristics such as significant cross-border nature, rapid cascading, and partial eradability require full-process management in terms of pre-prevention, mid-event response, and post-event learning. The process of presenting the cross-border effects of cyber crises is very hidden. The dominant factor comes from technology, and propagation spreads at the speed of light, posing new challenges and new tasks for crisis perception and early warning, decision-making and command, and situation control. It is urgent to take precautions and strengthen the network crisis management system and capacity building by establishing and improving crisis management institutions, constructing and improving crisis coordination mechanisms, formulating and updating crisis response plans, and actively conducting crisis management drills.

4 Conclusion
As one of the greatest inventions of the 20th century, the Internet has led to the vigorous development and widespread application of information network technology. Cyberspace has emerged as the "second type of living space." Human society has entered the digital era in which cyberspace and physical space are deeply integrated. While various network information systems support and drive economic and social development, the accompanying network security issues have also become the "Achilles' heel" of the Internet era. Although electronic Pearl Harbor, network "9·11", and digital nuclear weapons have not occurred, but similar crisis warnings were cited by government figures and exaggerated and reported by the media from time to time. Network security has gradually evolved from a technical issue that IT experts are concerned about to an international political and national security issue, increasingly affecting international security, stability, and overall national security.
