Session teaser

Information communication technologies (ICT) open up enormous opportunities for both social and economic development. However, at the same time they pose threats risking the safety and security – including privacy – of users by creating new vectors for cyberattacks. During the session, from different stakeholder groups’ perspectives, we will discuss users’ perceptions and concerns regarding risks in cyberspace, and identify the challenges in addressing them – including the current pandemic crisis. We will also explore existing and possible future solutions to ensure users’ confidence and trust when using ICTs and going online.

Desired outcome

The primary aims will be (1) to conceptualize the existing situation for users in cyberspace by outlining key existing and potential risks, and (2) to identify best practices and actionable recommendations for users and actors that are capable of making a contribution to enhancing security and users’ confidence in cyberspace. These actors include governments and intergovernmental institutions, the technical community, civil society and private sector entities.

Format

The interactive moderated discussion will take place with experts representing different stakeholder groups and addressing three sections on the topic:

  • Risks (what should we – users – be aware of and what makes us vulnerable?);
  • Challenges (do we have enough resources and capacity to address the existing risks and ensure the security and safety for users in cyberspace?); and
  • Solutions (what different stakeholder groups could and should do to ensure not only a secure, but also a human-centric cyberspace, where fundamental values are guaranteed and technology works for people?).

The session would take place with interventions from the audience and other participants after each section to ensure a fruitful dialogue and exchange of views in the EuroDIG community.
