Past Event
Join the Washington Foreign Law Society and the Stimson Center in this third in a series of discussions dissecting cyber issues as they relate to current and potential legal accountability: Cyber Accountability – Who did it? Is it wrong? Can they be stopped?
Cyber espionage, sabotage and cyber crime are on the rise. State-sponsored operations are increasing too; however, accountability is difficult because of anonymity in cyberspace and political sensitivities with attribution. The Colonial Pipeline ransomware attack that caused fuel shortages in parts of the US is only the most recent example. What’s to be done to curb attackers? How effective have targeted sanctions been and what else can be done? In 2019, the EU developed a cyber diplomacy toolbox – is it working and what can countries learn from this effort?
