Global Tech Security Commission Structure & Process

SWOT ANALYSIS is the strategic thinking which requires the evaluation of Strength, Weakness, Opportunity & Threats. It provides information that is helpful in matching the resources of the firm to face the environmental competition. It creates a logical framework for strategic alternatives and selecting the best one. It guides the strategist in strategy identification and formulation. Strength & Weakness are internal analysis of business whereas Opportunity & threat are external environmental analysis. Strength : It is an inherent capacity of the organization which provides strategic advantage over its competitors. Weakness: It is an inherent limitation or constraint of the organization which creates disadvantage to the organization. Opportunity: It is a favorable condition of the environment which enables the business to strengthen its position. Threat: It is an unfavorable condition of the environment which causes risk or damage to the position of the organization A firm’s strengths are its resources & capabilities that can be used as a basis for developing a competitive advantage. Examples of strengths: Patents Brand names Good-will Customer loyalty Technical-know-how Strong distribution network Competent personnel The absence of certain strengths create weaknesses. Examples Lack of patent protection Weak brand name Poor reputation among customers High cost structure Lack of access to resources Lack of access to key distributors Lack of skilled HR The external environmental analysis reveal certain new opportunities for the growth of the organization. Examples Liberal policies and regulations Unfulfilled customer needs Adaptive with new technology Removal of international trade barriers Changing environment invite threats for business. Example New rules and regulations Change in consumer tastes away from firm’s products Availability of substitute Increased barrier Strong rivalry SWOT Matrix creates a scope for identifying the best fit between firm’s strength with its opportunities. It also states that how to overcome a weakness and threat. Matrix is the combination of rows and columns. The SWOT analysis profile consists of combinations of S-O WO S-T W-T

The Global Economic Security Strategy (GESS) Public Version

Keith Krach

The Global Economic Security Strategy (GESS) contained in these pages harnesses powerful areas of competitive advantage, including the innovation and resources of our private sector; strong partnerships with friends and allies, and the moral high ground of our American values and optimism. It provides an integrated plan to leverage, grow and amplify these strengths through three distinct pillars of action. The first pillar of the Global Economic Security Strategy is to turbocharge our economic competitiveness and innovation to ensure our economic security. If we cannot do both in tandem, we will no longer be the global leader that we are now. The pillar begins by describing how we will turbocharge economic competitiveness by continuing to invest in the American worker, increase access to capital, accelerate the nation’s digital transformation, rebuild our industrial base, and extend our lead in research and development. The second pillar details how we must safeguard America’s assets, which have long been under attack from our strategic adversaries. This involves protecting our country’s technology, intellectual property, investment resources, open markets, and civil society institutions, and strengthening our supply chains to prevent being overly and adversely dependent on any one country. Finally, the pillar outlines the importance of focusing on critical innovation sectors so that we can win the race for leadership in areas vital to our national security. The third pillar is to form a network of trusted partners comprised of like-minded countries, companies, and civil society institutions. This Economic Prosperity Network (EPN) is built on the idea that strong partnerships advance shared prosperity. Through economic diplomacy, the EPN will harness the innovation, resources and synergies of its members into an equitable and unifying geo-economic network that enables multiple areas of economic collaboration. These partnerships are grounded in a set of shared principles that form the basis of trust and prosperity: reciprocity, integrity, accountability, transparency, and respect for the rule of law, property, and sovereignty. By leading this freedom coalition, the United States and our partners will have strength in numbers to confront any nation that seeks to undermine our prosperity and basic freedoms. The GESS recognizes that the world wants and needs America to lead, but that we cannot confront the challenges of our time alone. We must build a coalition of economic partners and private sector companies to secure the foundations of free and open societies at home and throughout the world.

Global Tech Security Commission Overview

Keith Krach

Global Tech Security Commission Overview Mission Develop the definitive global tech security strategy to safeguard freedom through the adoption of trusted technology by designing a set of sector specific strategies as well as an integrated approach that democracies can adopt to counter techno-authoritarianism. Objective The core objective of the Commission is to assemble a network of global multi-sector leaders to create a global tech security strategy to safeguard freedom through the adoption of trusted technology. The Commission will publish a groundbreaking report that serves as the preeminent policy playbook for global tech security that rallies and unifies countries, companies, and civil society and results in a global trust network that safeguards freedom. The final Commission report will articulate a common strategic vision for the future of technology and its relationship to liberal democratic principles among like-minded states and actors. The report will offer concrete steps for democratic countries to collectively develop and promote technological advances that bolster democratic governance and individual rights, thereby outflanking rather than reacting to China’s future techno-authoritarian efforts. Goals 1. Design a set of sector specific strategies in 12 technology industry verticals and recommend a set of policy actions for the U.S. and like-minded nations to proactively counter threats posed authoritarian regimes. 2. Integrate a comprehensive set of industry strategies designed to advance global economic security by expanding technological collaboration between allies. 3. Build a unified global network of companies, institutions, industry leaders, and countries, committed to trust standards and principles. 4. Establish a meaningful set of trust standards to create a level playing field, and end abuse by authoritarian regimes. 5. Catalyze the widespread adoption of trusted technologies to advance freedom

Keith Krach

The Strategy for Creating a Movement Against China’s Ideology of Genocide to Maintain International Order The world has a moral imperative to end the Xinjiang genocide because it fits the definition of punishable genocide established by the United Nations at the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of Genocide in 1948 in response to the Nazi atrocities. With no consequences, there can be no international order. With China’s denial despite all the evidence to the contrary, Under Secretary of State Krach determined that the government could not be effective alone in ending China’s crimes against humanity. The strategy would require an all-of-society approach in the form of a movement and would necessitate Krach being the first US official to label the Xingjian atrocities as genocide which he did in national TV broadcast on the fourth of July 2020. Krach used the “Trust Doctrine” as the platform to create a movement the CCP’s human rights abuse that advocates shining the light of transparency and calling on—government, business, universities, pension funds, stock exchanges, financial institutions, the press, and civil society—asserting their moral responsibility and fiduciary duty to establish governance principles to prevent enabling or investing in any entities that facilitate human rights abuses. He also sent letters to all corporate CEOs, university governing boards, and leaders of civil society groups, and called for divestment. The Athenai Institute, a student-founded nonprofit comprised of College Republicans and Democrats, has responded to this call for divestment by organizing a grassroots movement that has rapidly spread across thirty college campuses that are pressing universities to \vote with their wallets. Washington Examiner: “Krach laid the groundwork for the Uyghur genocide university divestment movement and was the first public official in the world to refer to the persecution of Uyghurs in China as a genocide, an act of conscience that has stood the test of time and which gave hope to many in the Uyghur community that justice will be done.”

Keith Krach

The Trust Doctrine as a Policy Framework for Maintaining International Order Trust is a precondition for democracy and lasting peace. For that reason, Under Secretary of State Keith Krach was nominated for the 2022 Nobel Peace Prize for the development of the “Trust Doctrine” and its deployment to defend against technological authoritarianism, safeguard global economic security, preserve democracy in Taiwan, and protect human rights. With the rise of authoritarianism, the Trust Doctrine, his nominators asserted, represents not just the success of these efforts toward peace, but the possibilities for an all-inclusive framework by which peace may be achieved across multiple sectors of human life. This doctrine means every peaceful relationship must ultimately be based on trust, which in turn requires a partnership to be founded on the firm foundation of integrity, accountability, transparency, property rights, national sovereignty, reciprocity, respect for the rule of law, the environment, independent press, and human rights. These are things that the free world honors and authoritarian regimes do not. Instead, they use them to their strategic advantage by utilizing the “Power Principle,” which forgoes the necessity of shared values, and operates by coercion, co-option, concealment, bellicosity, and threats. In one jujitsu move, the “Trust Doctrine” weaponizes the trust principles that we honor, and China doesn’t and instead of letting them abuse our trust, turns the tables by using those very principles that protect freedom against them. Dean of Georgetown Law School William Treanor observed, “What Under Secretary of State Krach did running U.S. economic diplomacy and building the Clean Network Alliance of Democracies is of the utmost importance especially now. His use of the ‘Trust Principle’ to defend against technological authoritarianism, safeguard global economic security, preserve democracy in Taiwan, and protect human rights resonates with our core values. That’s why it’s so inspiring.”

Safeguarding the Climate, Energy Security & Human Rights by Preventing ESG In...

Keith Krach

Safeguarding the Climate, Energy Security & Human Rights by Preventing ESG Investment in China’s Dominant Dirty Solar The explosive growth of ESG investment in China’s domination of the Solar Industry which utilizes Uyghur slave labor and dirty coal-fired power plants has created a growing consciousness that unfettered investment in China’s economy has serious consequences for America’s economic and national security. Investors, consumers, and voters rightly want “clean” supply chains with clean labor practices for clean energy, but the ESG investment industry has failed to deliver them. To address this massive issue, Krach and his team determined that the Clean Capital Markets Strategy necessitated a multi-faceted campaign involving Wall Street, major corporations, civil society, American universities, and consumers. When it came to ESG, this strategy presented one of the most comprehensive models for addressing the inconsistent application of ESG standards—not just on solar, but every industry under the sun. Clean Capital Markets Strategy consisted of four prongs: (1) calling out the CCP’s egregious behavior; (2) unveiling China’s financial ruses; (3) championing investors; (4) taking action. Rather than replicating the convoluted EU regulatory approach that likely will serve as a brake on innovation and investment, U.S. policymakers are looking to the Clean Capital Markets approach. As part of his broad push to protect the average American investor from unknowingly financing the CCP’s malign intentions, the Clean Capital Markets Playbook addresses the distortions that have arisen under the current system. The playbook’s targeted, common-sense recommendations also have the added benefit of leveling the playing field for companies that play by the rules, do not benefit from slave labor, or have the backing of a predatory party-state. As Uyghur advocate Nury Turkel observed, “Investors, consumers, and voters want a ‘clean’ supply chain for clean energy, but the ESG investment industry has failed to deliver.” Turkel has called Krach’s approach “groundbreaking.” Wharton Business School Case study; Here Comes the Sun: ESG and Dirty Solar Supply Chains

The Strategy for Preserving Democracy in Taiwan as a Lynchpin for Internatio...

Keith Krach

The Strategy for Preserving Democracy in Taiwan as a Lynchpin for International Order To the free world, a peaceful Taiwan is a lynchpin of democracy and a role model of freedom. To China’s Xi Jinping, an independent Taiwan dispels the myth that democracy is incompatible with Chinese culture, and he wants it gone. After Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, Xi Jinping’s consolidation of power at the 20th National Congress and Taiwan’s increasing dominance in semiconductor fabrication, Taiwan has never been more vulnerable and critical to international order. As part of his mission to counter China’s potential invasion, Under Secretary of State Keith Krach designed a 6-pronged strategy to deter Beijing’s aggression by creating an economic “security blanket” around Taiwan based on the Trust Doctrine’s network of partners. The chess moves included rallying nations that recognize Taiwan, bringing Taiwan into the Clean Network Alliance of Democracies, brokering the largest onshoring in US history with semiconductor giant TSMC, showing visible support as the most senior U.S. diplomat to visit Taiwan in 41 years, devising the Lee Economic Prosperity Partnership—a five-year economic collaboration agreement, followed by the Science and Technology Cooperation Pact, and paving the way for a Trade Agreement. The free trade agreement creates a halo effect for U.S. private sector investment in Taiwan which clears the way for US allies to invest. Strategically, that dramatically increases the odds of allied military support if a conflict breaks out and would cause China to think twice about an invasion. His use of the Trust Doctrine as the fulcrum to shield Taiwan from China’s aggression by strengthening its economic ties with the US and allies earned Krach a 2022 Nobel Peace Prize nomination. Taiwan’s de facto US ambassador Hsiao Bi-khim also dubbed Krach “Taiwan’s Number One Friend.” Taiwan’s President Tsai summed up his historic trip by saying, “Under Secretary Keith Krach’s visit exemplified the remarkable possibilities of Taiwan-US relations.”

How the Clean Network Alliance of Democracies Changed the Future of Sino-Amer...

Keith Krach

How the Clean Network Alliance of Democracies Changed the Future of Sino-American Competition In early 2020, all previous US efforts to defeat China’s masterplan to control global 5G communications had failed. Their momentum seemed unstoppable, and their masterplan seemed inevitable. Both sides of the aisle were hitting the panic button. Under Secretary of State Krach and his team took on a last-ditch effort and embarked on a global campaign to build the Clean Network Alliance of Democracies comprising like-minded countries, companies and civil society that operate by a set of democratic trust principles based on the “Trust Doctrine.” The objective was not only to defeat China’s telecom providers but to use the urgency of the 5G mission as a beachhead to create an enduring model for all areas of techno-economic competition with China. In less than a year, the Clean Network included 60 countries, representing two-thirds of the world's GDP, over 200 telcos and a host of industry-leading companies. In the process, they invented a new transformational model of diplomacy now known as Tech Statecraft which integrates Silicon Valley strategies with traditional foreign policy tools. Perhaps most importantly, this nonpartisan model provided the unity and continuity of policy between Republican and Democratic Administrations, which is so vital to our allies. Bloomberg observed that this groundbreaking approach “is to China what George Kennan’s historic ‘long telegram’ of 1946 was to the Soviet Union.” “The Clean Network’s defeat of the Chinese Communist Party’s masterplan to control 5G communications was the first time a U.S. government-lead initiative proved that China’s economic warfare is beatable because it exposed their biggest weakness: nobody trusts them,” said former US National Security Advisor General H.R. McMaster. “I don’t think anybody has done more to integrate economic security and national security than Keith Krach.” Reference: Harvard Business School Case Study; The Clean Network and the Future Of Global Technology Competition

Keith Krach

Wharton Business School Case study; Here Comes the Sun: ESG and Dirty Solar Supply Chains, Kelly Currie & Keith Krach There has been explosive growth in environmental, social and governance (ESG) investment. There is also a growing consciousness that unfettered investment in China’s economy has serious consequences for America’s economic and national security. It is increasingly clear that ESG investment in Chinese entities are in serious conflict, and nowhere is this conflict more evident than the supply chain for solar panels. Investors, consumers, and voters rightly want “clean” supply chains with clean labor practices for clean energy, but the ESG investment industry has failed to deliver them. Instead, as ESG investment has increased, the supply chain for solar panels has become deeply entangled in the ongoing genocide against the Uyghurs . Clean Capital Markets Playbook To address this massive issue, Krach and his team determined that the Clean Capital Markets Strategy necessitated a multi-faceted campaign involving Wall Street, major corporations, civil society, American universities, and consumers. When it came to ESG, this strategy presented one of the most comprehensive models for addressing the inconsistent application of ESG standards—not just on solar, but every industry under the sun. Clean Capital Markets Strategy consisted of four prongs: (1) calling out the CCP’s egregious behavior; (2) unveiling China’s financial ruses; (3) championing investors; (4) taking action. “Clean Capital Markets” Rather than replicating the convoluted EU regulatory approach that likely will serve as a brake on innovation and investment, U.S. policymakers should look to the Clean Capital Markets approach. Instead of controversial and complicated new disclosure schemes, policymakers should focus on targeted, achievable goals. As part of his broad push to protect the average American investor from unknowingly financing the CCP’s malign intentions, Krach developed the multi-pronged Clean Capital Markets Playbook to address the distortions that have arisen under the current system. The playbook’s targeted, common-sense recommendations may also have the added benefit of leveling the playing field for companies that play by the rules, do not benefit from slave labor or have the backing of a predatory party-state . In April 2022, as the co-chair of the Global Tech Security Commission, Krach pens an article in Fortune “Present your China contingency plan at the next board meeting.” Boards increasingly understand doing business with, in, or for China represents tremendous risk. The world saw the Ukrainian attack coming. The free world has come to learn that, just like Putin, General Secretary Xi is not to be trusted. You can’t afford to get caught off guard on this one. So, prepare now. When that moment comes, and you’re not ready, it will already be too late. When the dreaded becomes inevitable, you need to develop a plan and execute on it.

Setting Traps with Strategic Positioning: Keith Krach

Keith Krach

How to Set Traps with Strategic Positioning Strategic Positioning = Trust Krach observed that typically what the government calls marketing is really tactical communications focused on crisis management and public diplomacy. Private-sector marketing know-how was another unique skillset the Clean Team to build the Clean Network into a global brand and develop the marketing campaign. From a strategic standpoint, Krach believed that to enable transformational change you need three things: a noble cause, an adversary, and a plan. To inspire America’s allies and partners, the noble cause became the battle of “Freedom versus Authoritarianism,” which provided a clear differentiation from the adversary—the CCP. The Strategic Positioning—Who Do You Trust? The Clean Team purposefully targeted the CCP, not Huawei, because they envisioned 5G as the initial beachhead in a much bigger battle. The heart of the marketing plan consisted of the strategic positioning and three simple key messages re-enforced countless times. As Krach said during his June 25 press conference and repeated continuously, “The question that governments and businesses around the globe are asking about 5G is, ‘Who do you trust?’”

Utilizing Industry Tech Trust Standards for Strategic Advantage Krach Instit...

Keith Krach

In Silicon Valley, we facilitate industry standards. You set the rules of the ballgame. In DocuSign we came up with a thing called the xDTM standard, which measures the level of trust in a digital transaction. And we did the same thing with a clean network trust standard and with that enabled countries and companies to do. It set that bar of trust. Without using China's name or will always name and set that bar, it was based on those democratic principles. if you think about it, if I'm competing against you and you could steal my intellectual property, you can use slave labor, you could use coal fired power plants, you don't have to be transparent. You're going to win every tack. They would do that for their strategic advantage. What we did in one jujitsu move, we flipped them on their back and use these trust principles, these democratic values to our advantage. if you think about it. We weaponized the very. Transparency of democratic values that protect our freedom.

Clean Capital Market Campaign Chinese Stocks on U.S. Stock Exchanges- Keith K...

Keith Krach

Protecting American Investors Keith Krach Under Secretary of State Senior Advisor Ed KinseyDeception is not compatible with transparency. With China’s entry into the American stock markets, they have subversively challenged the roots of financial transparency, a strength of the American free-market system. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued rulings in the 1990s which seemed appropriate for that time but did not anticipate the entry of a new form of a corporation, Chinese state-owned enterprises (SOE’s) in which the government, the regulators and the beneficiaries are all one entity. As a result, SOE’s can sell securities on the New York and NASDAQ stock exchanges without complying with the disclosure rules that American and other countries’ enterprises are required to follow. Adding full control of SOE structures to deception destroys transparency. At the time of the original rulings, the SEC stated they found no evidence of the incompatibility of laws but noted that they need to monitor the result. This was at the infancy of the emergence of foreign regulated corporations onto the American exchanges. It’s time for the SEC to revisit its 1990’s rulings to address the current laws and circumstances. The road to security regulation internationalization was based on the principle that all sellers played by the same rules. The continuing emergence of Chinese SOEs on the American based New York and NASDAQ exchanges is stacking the deck against American companies and intensifying the risks that investors are taking. The knowledge of China’s security standards and methods to offshore valuable American capital is wildly confusing. Even seasoned Wall Street investors and investment firms are not aware of the regulatory and motive differences. This is a perfect storm for a catastrophic meltdown due to the collection of broad risk factors that now exist.The U.S. stock markets are the largest and most respected in the world because of the quality of the regulatory governance and transparency that surrounds them. It is our responsibility to uphold those strengths and our obligation to ensure that these markets remain strong for the future generations of Americans. Uniquely challenging times call for strong action; The SEC must reverse course and immediately issue new rules requiring any company that does not comply with Sarbanes-Oxley and US securities laws to be delisted from the U.S. stock exchanges within the shorter of 12 months or their next annual reporting time. The DOL must issue a risk advisory to pension plan fiduciaries regarding the additional risks related to foreign stocks that are not compliant with U.S securities laws. The DOJ should pursue action against PERS plan fiduciaries who have conflicts of interest with the government of China. Such actions will send a signal to warn others.

History of the $280B Bipartisan Chips and Science Act The Chips and Science Act in essence merged the Endless Frontiers Act and the Chips for America Act. Those two pieces combined with what we put in the Bill for Economic Statecraft probably makeup 95% of the bill. This legislation was a vital element of our mission to develop and operationalize a Global Economic Security Strategy that would drive economic growth, maximize national security and combat China’s techno-economic aggression. • The Global Economic Security Strategy (GESS) integrated three distinct pillars of action consisting of turbocharging economic competitiveness and innovation, safeguarding America’s assets and building a network of trusted partners. o The first pillar focused on investing in R&D, retraining the workforce, increasing access to capital, fostering STEM education, and rebuilding the manufacturing base, all of which were incorporated in his team’s early design of the $280B bipartisan Chips and Science Act. o The second pillar concentrated on protecting technology from our strategic adversaries, securing supply chains, strengthening IP protections, and preserving the gold stand of our capital markets. The $12B onshoring of TSMC was a direct result of the plan. o The third pillar created the Trust Doctrine to build the Clean Network Alliance and companies for driving the adoption of trusted technology. The 5G Trifecta which included TSMC was the opening salvo in defeating China’s 5G masterplan. The Endless Frontier Act was initially conceived in November 2019 and presented to Senators Schumer and Young to authorize about $150 billion for boosting investment in high-tech research vital to our national security in 10 tech-intensive industries. The bipartisan legislation which was introduced a few months later. o The strategic plan we presented to senators and congressmen demonstrated how to grow this critical high-tech research investment to $500 billion with matches from the private sector and our closest technological allies. We later validated this and garnered significant interest from companies and countries that became members of the Clean Network. The CHIPS Act portion of the Chips and Science Act was derived from our combined State and Commerce Department team’s historic $12 billion onshoring of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC), which appropriated nearly $53 billion to bring back American semiconductor manufacturing. o Our strategy was for the TSMC announcement to serve as a stimulus that would lead to the fortification of a trusted supply chain by attracting TSMC's broad ecosystem of suppliers, persuading other chip companies to produce in U.S. and inspiring universities to develop chip engineering. TSMC was the crucial catalyst to design a bipartisan bill providing the necessary funding. That is why we reached out to Senator Cornyn and Warner.
