Models of Escalation and De-escalation in Cyber ConflictZsolt Nemeth
The cyber insecurity conundrum cuts across all things digital or networked. How can we prioritize defensive efforts across such a vast domain? This talk will describe a framework for engineering systems and policymaking based on the work factors for cyber attack and defense. After developing the work factor concept, it will be illustrated in several examples
The document discusses the security challenges posed by the Internet of Things (IoT). It states that while the IoT concept and some security issues are not new, the scale of IoT networks, the heterogeneity of devices, reliance on cloud computing, and exposure of connected devices create new challenges for securing the IoT. Some key issues mentioned are that IoT is developing faster than laws and standards around security, different devices and platforms may have incompatible security measures, and many potential problems are simply existing security issues magnified by the massive scale of IoT infrastructure. Securing the IoT is seen as both a technological and business challenge that boards of directors need to address due to litigation risks for brands.

[CB21] Keynote1:Shaking the Cybersecurity Kaleidoscope – An Immersive Look in...CODE BLUE
Over 10,000 new cybersecurity technologies are developed each year yet we do not see a correlating decrease in cybersecurity threats. This is because cybersecurity isn’t a mere computer science problem. The most vulnerable part in the security chain is humans. But humans are also a valuable asset in countering cybersecurity threats. A kaleidoscope is constantly changing pattern or sequence of elements. In cyber we need to shake the kaleidoscope to create new ways of both identifying and solving problems.
This presentation will be somewhat unorthodox. Maurushat will weave a story through the thread of human behaviour and cybersecurity with the primary objective of making sense out of chaos.

communication devices have been great force multipliers, endless connectivity and proliferation of IoT devices is giving rise to vulnerabilities, risks and concerns. Cyber security is today ranked among top threats by governments and corporates. Heightened concerns about data security and privacy have resulted in a spate of regulations in India and across the world. India is in the process of discussing and enacting its own comprehensive data security and privacy regulation, as well as vertical specific ones. Cyber security is an ecosystem where laws, organisations, skills, cooperation and
technical implementation would need to be in harmony to be
effective.
Overall, a robust regulatory framework based on global and
country-specific regulations, development of a holistic cyber
security eco-system (academia and industry as well as
entrepreneurial) and a coordinated global approach through
proactive cyber diplomacy would help to secure cyber space and promote confidence and trust of key stakeholders including
citizens, businesses, political and security leaders.
CII has been actively working in the cyber security space. The CII Task Force on Public Private Partnership for Security of the Cyber Space has been set up to bring about improvements in the legal framework to strengthen and maintain a safe cyberspace ecosystem by capacity building through education and training programmes. We would facilitate collaboration and cooperation between Government and Industry in the area of cyber security in general and protection of critical information infrastructure in particular, covering cyber threats, vulnerabilities, breaches, potential protective measures, and adoption of best practices.

Information Security is a much broader concept than technology. It relates to
protecting information and information systems from unauthorised access, use,
disclosure, disruption, modification or destruction. As the volume of information
grows and continues to be increasingly stored and communicated in electronic
form, Information Security is rapidly becoming intertwined with technology, and
more specifically, the internet. This has given rise to the term Cyber Security and
for it to be used interchangeably with Information Security.
This roadmap is for business leaders and security professionals alike, and sets
out potential future scenarios and issues around Information Security, allowing the
reader to draw implications and conclusions that apply to them.
