Annotation Integrating Cybersecurity and Critical Infrastructure: National, Regional and International Approaches

SIPRI is pleased to announce the publication of an edited volume of essays, entitled 'Integrating Cybersecurity and Critical Infrastructure: National, Regional and International Approaches', based on participant contributions to SIPRI's expert workshop in December 2017, 'Japan-Europe-USA: Integrating Cybersecurity and Norms into Critical Infrastructure'.

There seems to be a consensus that cyberattacks resulting in damage to critical infrastructure, such as hospitals and power grids, are a common threat. However, there is a great deal of disagreement on how to define the parameters of and escalation within this arena. This collection of essays seeks to provide a baseline for understanding how these issues are unfolding at the national level in Japan, at the regional level in Europe and at the international level under the United Nations.

In this volume, specific examples of system engineering, industry developments and legal frameworks highlight the complexity of building a static framework or format for cyber-standards and best practices.

Its main takeaways suggest that resiliency in terms of cybersecurity and critical infrastructure must be addressed at the levels of system integrity, private sector engagement, national frameworks, regional integration and international norms. However, the lack of consensus - even among like-minded states - in terms of definitions and frameworks indicates that these levels are likely to remain disconnected for the foreseeable future.

Faced with this fragmentation, providing the opportunity for like-minded and even dissenting states' academic, political, military, technical and legal experts to assemble and to discuss their respective policies on cybersecurity and critical infrastructure provides a baseline to facilitate official-level talks.

The integration of norms at the international level, the report finds, is likely to depend on the establishment of such norms at the national and regional levels. Unfortunately, as in any number of arenas, the domain of cyberspace may have to suffer a large-scale attack on critical infrastructure before an actionable impetus can be found for systemic, industrial and legal change at the national, regional and international levels.

Given the relative youth of this domain, this volume seeks to offer the reader a foundation for better understanding the current key issues and to facilitate the formation of a more common approach to integrating cybersecurity norms into critical infrastructure.

ABOUT THE PUBLICATION
In this volume, six experts from industry, government, academia and the legal sector delve deeper into several key target areas of cybersecurity and critical infrastructure-namely system integrity, the role of the private sector and legal frameworks. Their essays provide a baseline for understanding how these issues are unfolding at the national level in Japan, at the regional level in Europe and at the international level under the United Nations.
ABOUT THE EDITOR
Dr Lora Saalman (United States) is an Associate Senior Fellow within SIPRI's Conflict and Peace and Armament and Disarmament research areas and Vice President on Asia-Pacific at the EastWest Institute.
