Tackling Cyber Attacks and Disinformation | Cyber Security Summit 2019 | Munich Security Conference
On November 24 and 25, 2019, the Munich Security Conference convened its Cyber Security Summit 2019 in Berlin, co-hosted by @DeutscheTelekomAG. In the run-up to the United Nations' annual Internet Governance Forum, the Summit gathered around 150 high-level decision-makers and expert representatives from the private sector, academia and civil society. Key themes included global competition over information technologies as well as multi-stakeholder cooperation to tackle cyber attacks and disinformation.
How does rising geopolitical competition affect security in cyberspace? How can we promote mutual trust and cooperation between governments and businesses, and ensure the freedom and security of users in cyberspace? These were key questions posed by the MSC to the participants of its seventh Cyber Security Summit in Berlin. Cyberspace has long been regarded as a policy area in which states predominantly have common interests and which can therefore represent a starting point for international cooperation. However, the necessary trust at the international level seems at risk in the current climate. A recurring theme for the two-day event was therefore the need for confidence-building measures.
