Title: The Need for a Digital Geneva Convention in Times of Cyber(In)Security
Description:
Sophisticated cyber attacks, increasingly carried out by nation states or their proxies, are on the rise. While there has been significant discussion at the international level about appropriate norms of behavior in cyberspace, progress has been mixed. Microsoft and other private sector actors have called for a "Digital Geneva Convention" to help address these challenges.
This event is intended to explore the ideas underlying a "Digital Geneva Convention" in more detail, clarify the key concepts and bring in multi-stakeholder perspectives on how to move the debate on cybersecurity norms of behavior forward.
