General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR): Do you understand it and are you ...Cvent
Whether you’re an event or hospitality professional in a small, medium or large organization, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is going to affect you. Get prepared with Cvent and Debrah Harding of Market Research Society before the 25th May deadline. GDPR is a new EU regulation, designed for the digital age. GDPR will strengthen an individual's rights and increase business accountability for data privacy and holding personal information. Organizations found breaching the regulations can face fines of up to 20 million Euros or up to 4% of annual global turnover. At Cvent we are already on track to becoming GDPR compliant and we want to advise our industry partners on how to become compliant too.
This is a slightly modified version of a presentation that I gave to fellow lawyers last week. It explains what GDPR is, the policy of data protection and the evolution of data protection legislation from the OECD Guidelines and Council of Europe Convention to the GDPR. It explores the regulation focusing on the data protection principles and, in particular, the lawfulness requirement and the validity of consent. The presentation mentions the Law enforcement data protection directive, the Data Protection Bill and the arrangements post Brexit. Finally, it considers the preparations recommended by the Information Commissioner for small busiesses

Introduction to EU General Data Protection Regulation: Planning, Implementat...Financial Poise
The GDPR changed the way the world collects, stores, and sends personal data. The GDPR is a broad EU regulation that requires businesses to protect the personal data of EU citizens, whether the business itself is in the EU or elsewhere. Since its implementation in 2018, companies that collect data on EU citizens must comply with strict rules for the protection of personal data or face heavy fines for non-compliance. This webinar will provide an overview of GDPR’s applicability and requirements, as well as how your organization may meet those standards.
GDPR (General Data Protection Rules) were implemented in May 2018 across Europe, and they have confused ordinary people and business gurus alike,
This simple PowerPoint presentation destroys and dismantles some of the myths of GDPR, making it more accessible & easily understandable.

International Cooperation to Impose Consequences for Malicious Cyber Activity...Benjamin Ang
Session 4 - International Cooperation to Impose
Consequences on Malicious Cyber Activities
Many states are concerting joint efforts to impose costs for irresponsible behaviors in
cyberspace by sharing information, jointly disclosing attribution, or issuing joint statements with allies, partners, or like-minded states. Being aware of the importance of the roles played by private sectors for national cybersecurity, states are seeking ways to induce cooperation from private sectors as well.
Session 4 covers cooperation efforts at the international level for imposing consequences on irresponsible state behavior in cyberspace. Speakers are expected to address the following
points.
H. Introduce cases where costs for irresponsible state behavior in cyberspace are effectively
imposed with joint efforts among states.
I. Introduce cases where cooperation between private and public sectors has contributed to
impose costs for irresponsible state behavior in cyberspace.
J. Underscore specific areas where efforts for international cooperation need to be concerted
to effectively impose consequences for irresponsible state behavior in cyberspace.

Changing Domains - The Cyber Info Realm 2023.pdfBenjamin Ang
CYBERSPACE: A global domain within the information environment consisting of the interdependent networks of information technology infrastructures and resident data, including the Internet, telecommunications networks, computer systems, and embedded processors and controllers.
Definition
Foreign interference occurs when a foreign entity (state or non-state actor),
with hostile intent,
takes actions to deliberately, covertly and deceptively
disrupt the politics and policies of the target state
Source: Fog of war: how the Ukraine conflict transformed the cyber threat landscape, published by Google TAG (Threat Analysis Group)
Overview
1. Russian government-backed attackers have engaged in an aggressive, multi-pronged effort to gain a decisive wartime advantage in cyberspace, often with mixed results.
2. Moscow has leveraged the full spectrum of IO – from overt state-backed media to covert platforms and accounts – to shape public perception of the war.
3. The invasion has triggered a notable shift in the Eastern European cybercriminal ecosystem that will likely have long term implications for both coordination between criminal groups and the scale of cybercrime worldwide.
Sources: Defending Ukraine: Early Lessons from the Cyber War (Microsoft)*
Defense against a military invasion now requires for most countries the ability to disburse and distribute digital operations and data assets across borders and into other countries.
Recent advances in cyber threat intelligence and end-point protection have helped Ukraine withstand a high percentage of destructive Russian cyberattacks.
As a coalition of countries has come together to defend Ukraine, Russian intelligence agencies have stepped up network penetration and espionage activities targeting allied governments outside Ukraine.
In coordination with these other cyber activities, Russian agencies are conducting global cyber-influence operations to support their war efforts.
This calls for a coordinated and comprehensive strategy to strengthen defenses against the full range of cyber destructive, espionage, and influence operations.
The Strontium group was targeting Ukrainian institutions, media organizations, and government institutions and think tanks in the United States and the European Union
Microsoft got court orders 16 times to redirect internet traffic from Strontium domains into a ‘sinkhole’

Why Application of International Law Applies to ASEAN.pdfBenjamin Ang
There is no international definition of these concepts in cyberspace
Armed attack
Use of force
Act of war
Traditional definitions require physical damage or physical injury
Rules of Law of Armed Conflict / International Humanitarian Law(but in cyber?)
Distinction – must distinguish between civilians and military targets
Proportionality – must avoid excessive harm to civilians / objects
Military necessity – allows force that is reasonable, lawful (see above), and operationally justified
Limitation – prohibits tactics that cause unnecessary suffering
Humane treatment – e.g., of captured prisoners
Do we need a Binding Legal Instrument?
US - No new international legal instrument needed, can interpret existing law
China - States must reach international consensus, new international legal instruments
EU - No new international legal instrument needed, can interpret existing law
ASEAN chooses its own terms on norms/law
ASEAN supported both UNGGE and OEWG tracks in 2018 – Indonesia, Singapore, and the Philippines said both processes were not incompatible
ASEAN has always followed its instinct of creating an internationally agreed, rules-based order based on its own interests, which is consistent with other arenas where international law or rules are unsettled
ASEAN may even consider plurilateral treaties
What ASEAN states need to move forward
Common language related to cyberspace
Legislation that can be translated across members
Capacity building in
Cyber issues, policy making, critical infrastructure protection (ASCCE) and
Military operations (ADMM Cyber and Information COE)
Confidence building measures e.g., CERT-CERT communications, contact lists
More participation from states, academia, and civil society
What is Cybersecurity – C, I, A?
Cybersecurity or Information Security?
Activities of foreign political, economic, military, intelligence, and information entities
The striving of countries toward dominance in the world information space
Development (by states) of information war concepts that create means for dangerous attack on the information spheres of other countries
Infringing the state’s control over information flows and public opinion (called “cyber sovereignty”)
ASEAN leaders
Value the principles of “mutual respect” and “non-interference”
View sovereignty as sacrosanct principle among ASEAN member states
Do not define ‘sovereignty’ – this provides flexibility in foreign and domestic policy
ASEAN member states also attach great importance to the creation of an international rules-based order,
which includes forming and adhering to international law and norms.
like the UN Convention of the Law of the Sea or UNCLOS.
Lessons learned from Capacity Building on International Cyber Norms in Southe...Benjamin Ang
Capacity building is recognized as a key to promote the adoption and implementation of international norms of responsible state behaviour in cyberspace. States at varying levels of cyber maturity benefit from these efforts, to develop a shared understanding of how international cyber norms support the stability of cyberspace, and to grow their own capacity and capabilities to implement these norms. This presentation draws on the experiences of the academics and practitioners who have been conducting cyber capacity building activities in southeast Asia and beyond, to derive lessons of what has (or has not) worked, some potential best practices, and to provide suggestions on how cyber capacity building can provide more value to the further growth of international cyber norms in the world.

Cybercrime and Cyber Warfare (and Information Operations) – Your questions an...Benjamin Ang
Slides from a talk given to Eunoia Junior College, Singapore
-------------------
Cyber Warfare questions
Are the concerns about cyber warfare overblown?
Why should young people care about cyber warfare?
What are the national/international systems or structures currently in place to protect us from cyber warfare? Are these protections adequate?
Considering that Singapore is a small country, is there really anything we can do in the face of the challenges posed by cyber warfare?
-------------------
Cybercrime Questions
How do scammers make Singaporeans lower their guard despite them already knowing that scams are prevalent in our society? Why do you think people still fall for scams?
By the time new types of scams are reported, new types of scams are already being created. How do you think the Singapore government can break this cycle?
How hard is it to find out criminals behind cyber attacks?
-----------
Information Operations questions
The Russo-Ukraine War, what are your thoughts on it being publicized on social media unlike many wars from the past?
Are there any political implications regarding the publication of the war on TikTok? Could posting the war on TikTok create any social issues?

To be held online on 15 September, we are pleased to have the Minister for Home Affairs and Law, Mr K Shanmugam, deliver a keynote speech on the public law issues relating to online harms and foreign interference. These issues are important and topical as they have a significant impact on society today, not just in Singapore, but worldwide. This will be followed by a panel that will analyse and develop the themes raised in the keynote, as well as discuss possible solutions, including legislative solutions, to such issues, in the context of public law. The panellists will comprise the Honourable Minister himself, practitioners, legal officers and academics active in the fields of administrative and constitutional law.
This conference provides a platform to hear from legal experts, and for different sectors of the legal industry to share ideas. We hope it will be relevant to all legal practitioners, government decision-makers, public-sector policy makers, academics and law students interested in public law.
Technology Disruption in the New Normal, Digital Inclusion and the LawBenjamin Ang
Technology disruption has swept through legal practice and the justice system, as it has in every other aspect of life in our new normal of remote work and online access. While digital transformation has been hugely beneficial to our society, there are new legal and cybersecurity questions that we need to grapple with as we continue to serve the public. Among the public, varying levels of digital capability and access raise new issues of digital inclusion for us to address in policy and operations. This talk seeks to raise awareness of these issues and to develop ideas for practical application.
