1 a National approach to Cyber security/CIIP: Raising awareness

2 Objectives Propose a way of thinking about Cyber Security/CIIP A FRAMEWORK Identify key elements of the FRAMEWORK and relationships among them Suggest methods for building a national consensus on FRAMEWORK and on implementation actions. 10/18/101

3 cybersecurity: Why Worry? Nation is dependent on ICTs   Economic wellbeing   National security   Social cohesion Risk is inherent in ICT use   Vulnerabilities   Threats   Interdependences Conclusion: Action is required 10/18/102

14 Vision National Strategy - What is it? A Policy Document that Provides a National Vision:  Outlines the case for national action  Identifies participants and their roles  Elaborates organizational responsibilities  Establishes policy and operational structures  Addresses key elements of cybersecurity  Lays out a plan of action 10/18/1013

15 Getting Started The AudienceThe Audience  Who are they?  What is their level of awareness and response?  What decisions already taken? The ParticipantsThe Participants  Those entities and persons who Will prepare and comment on the Self-Assessment and the National Strategy,Will prepare and comment on the Self-Assessment and the National Strategy, Will implement the National StrategyWill implement the National Strategy  They come from GovernmentGovernment Business and IndustryBusiness and Industry AcademiaAcademia Civil SocietyCivil Society 10/18/1014

16 Getting Started The Case for ActionThe Case for Action  Role of ICTs in the nation  Vulnerabilities and threats  Risks to be managed The stage for Cybersecurity:The stage for Cybersecurity:  Relationship to other national goals and objectives Economic and Development goalsEconomic and Development goals Industry goalsIndustry goals Social goalsSocial goals Security goalsSecurity goals 10/18/1015

17 key elements 10/18/1016 Legal Framework Culture of Cybersecurity Incident Management Collaboration and Information Exchange Key Elements of a National Cybersecurity Strategy

18 objectives For each key element  A statement of policy  Identify and prioritize goals to support policy  Elaborate specific steps to reach goals 10/18/1017

19 Other considerations Other Considerations  Resources Budget and financingBudget and financing Equipment and technologyEquipment and technology Human capacitiesHuman capacities  Timeframes and milestones  Priorities  Reviews and reassessments 10/18/1018

20 Output Self-assessment provides: Input to a National Cybersecurity Strategy  A set of Findings and Recommendations With supporting documentationWith supporting documentation Reviewed by all participantsReviewed by all participants   That provide the basis for policy decisions and a program of action to address cybersecurity Promulgated at a level to ensure action by all participants 10/18/1019

21 Conclusion Use of a National Cyber Security Self–Assessment to produce a National Cyber Security Strategy can assist governments: Understand the existing national approachUnderstand the existing national approach Develop “baseline” on best practicesDevelop “baseline” on best practices Identify areas for attentionIdentify areas for attention Prioritize national effortsPrioritize national efforts Promote national actionPromote national action and assist with   regionally and internationally coordination and   cross border cooperation 10/18/1020
