Sumario:This paper intends to give an overview of the current position of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) in the international security context, identifying NATO's perspective and response on one of the main security threats: the rising of hybrid warfare tactics performed by State and non-State actors (NSA). It deepens the hybrid warfare concept, as defined by major expert Frank Hoffmann, as academic-technical word, and its actual importance on NATO's strategic and operational course of action. An evaluation on NATO's tools will lead to synthetic and punctual recommendations for the Organization, experts and policy-makers to implement and improve NATO's capabilities
