While often involving technical matters, cybersecurity is an area where various voices from academia, politics, and civil society have called for the development (and enforcement) of pertinent norms. In this session, we shall discuss what these norms could be, and how they could be enforced in a realm where attribution is often tricky, and semi-state actors play an important role.

Session teaser

While often involving technical matters, cybersecurity is a socio-political realm where various voices from academia, business, and civil society have called for the development (and enforcement) of pertinent norms. This session looks at non-state actors as key norm shapers and wants to elucidate their role in the broader context of cybersecurity governance in Europe and internationally.

Keywords

Cybersecurity, cybernorms, standards, multi-stakeholder governance, non-state actors.

Session description

Over the past two decades, the public domain has experienced far-reaching phases of reconstitution. Forces of globalisation and technological advancement have added new degrees of complexity to international affairs and have given rise to a sweeping pluralisation of actors. Polymorphous non-state actors have come to inhabit central areas of international steering and policy-making, including among others, cybersecurity.

A domain of rising political, economic, and cultural relevance, cybersecurity has been subject to considerable non-state actor engagement. Apart from acting as providers of services such as end-point protection or technology consulting, non-state actors have also been seen to contribute extensively to the development of international cybersecurity norms.

This session wants to shed light on the following questions:

  • How are non-state actors in Europe and beyond involved in norm-making processes?
  • What strategies are employed in Europe, and internationally?
  • Are norms appropriate tools to regulate international relations and provide stability and security in Europe and beyond?
  • Should policymaking be a non-state concern?

Format

As a matter of public debate, cybersecurity norm development should concern everyone, which is why the session follows an interactive and inclusive format. In addition to the roundtable participants (representing different stakeholder groups), it is up to the audience to shape the discussion and provide thought-provoking input.

Session structure:

  • Moderator opens the session and provides the context for discussion (with audience contribution)
  • Round table participants provide opening statements
  • Audience challenges round table participants
  • Following initial discussions, moderator moves to interactive Q&A
  • Round table participants provide final statements
  • Moderator wraps up

For participants who cannot attend the session in person, remote participation is greatly encouraged. All voices will be made heard.
