Book excerpt: This book investigates the goals and policy aspects of cyber security education in the light of escalating technical, social and geopolitical challenges. The past ten years have seen a tectonic shift in the significance of cyber security education. Once the preserve of small groups of dedicated educators and industry professionals, the subject is now on the frontlines of geopolitical confrontation and business strategy. Global shortages of talent have created pressures on corporate and national policy for workforce development. Cyber Security Education offers an updated approach to the subject as we enter the next decade of technological disruption and political threats. The contributors include scholars and education practitioners from leading research and education centres in Europe, North America and Australia. This book provides essential reference points for education policy on the new social terrain of security in cyberspace and aims to reposition global debates on what education for security in cyberspace can and should mean. This book will be of interest to students of cyber security, cyber education, international security and public policy generally, as well as practitioners and policy-makers.

This book was released on 2014-04-30 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Work Of The Joint Committee On The National Security Strategy In 2013-14 (HC 169, HL 1257) covers the work of the Joint Committee on the National Security Strategy, which was established with a broad role; to consider the National Security Strategy. In practice, the Committee has considered not only the National Security Strategy (NSS) document 'A Strong Britain In An Age Of Uncertainty: The National Security Strategy' published by the Government in 2010 (see below), but also the wider strategy that underlies government decision making on matters affecting national security. The report gives an account of activities over the past year, highlighting in particular the evidence session with the Prime Minister in January 2014; draws attention to areas of continuing concern; and outlines objectives for the remainder of the Parliament.

This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Centre for the Protection of Critical National Infrastructure and the UK Cyber Security Strategy include in their definition of critical national infrastructure (CNI) communications, emergency services, energy, finance, food, government and public services, health, transport and water. Taking this definition as its starting point, this report asks whether the various agencies, bodies and individuals involved recognize the significance of the cyber stakeholder status that has been conferred upon them. How do these organizations identify and measure their cyber dependencies, and how well and systematically do they manage the risks and mitigate the potential vulnerabilities associated with these dependencies?

This book was released on 2009-08 with total page 18 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pervasive and sustained computer-based (cyber) attacks against federal and private-sector infrastructures pose a potentially devastating impact to systems and operations and the critical infrastructures that they support. Congress and the Executive Branch, including the new administration, have taken actions to examine the adequacy of Pres. Bush¿s strategy and identify areas for improvement. This report summarizes: (1) key reports and recommendations on the national cyber-security strategy; and (2) the views of experts on how to strengthen the strategy. The auditor conducted panel discussions with key cyber-security experts to solicit their views on areas for improvement. Illustrations.

Download or read book The UK Cyber Security Strategy written by Great Britain: National Audit Office and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2013-02-12 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The cost of cyber crime to the UK is currently estimated to be between £18 billion and £27 billion. Business, government and the public must therefore be constantly alert to the level of risk if they are to succeed in detecting and resisting the threat of cyber attack. The UK Cyber Security Strategy, published in November 2011, set out how the Government planned to deliver the National Cyber Security Programme through to 2015, committing £650 million of additional funding. Among progress reported so far, the Serious Organised Crime Agency repatriated more than 2.3 million items of compromised card payment details to the financial sector in the UK and internationally since 2011, preventing a potential economic loss of more than £500 million. In the past year, moreover, the public reported to Action Fraud over 46,000 reports of cyber crime, amounting to £292 million worth of attempted fraud. NAO identifies six key challenges faced by the Government in implanting its cyber security strategy in a rapidly changing environment. These are the need to influence industry to protect and promote itself and UK plc; to address the UK's current and future ICT and cyber security skills gap; to increase awareness so that people are not the weakest link; to tackle cyber crime and enforce the law; to get government to be more agile and joined-up; and to demonstrate value for money. The NAO recognizes, however, that there are some particular challenges in establishing the value for money

This book was released on 2010-03-18 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The issue of large-scale cyber-attacks on the internet has moved up the international agenda recently. This inquiry looks at how States and their major organisations can defend themselves and their critical information infrastructures (CIIs) against such attacks. Whilst individual States bear primary responsibility for their critical national infrastructure (CNI), the infrastructures are heavily interdependent. The Internet is a 'global network of networks' and individual States cannot be viewed in isolation. The Committee therefore concludes that continuing intervention at EU level was appropriate and that all Member States have an interest in bringing the defences of the least protected up. The Committee also looked at ENISA, the European Network and Information Security Agency, and they believe that with a widening of its mandate it can play a more significant part in the developments envisaged.

This book was released on 2013-06-06 with total page 27 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Certain telecommunications networks are a critical element of the UK's infrastructure, "the loss or compromise of which would have a major, detrimental impact on the availability or integrity of essential services, leading to sever economic or social consequences …" In the UK the Critical National Infrastructure (CNI) is now largely in the hands of private enterprises. There is potentially a conflict between the commercial imperative and national security. In 2003 BT, which is responsible for large parts of the UK's telecommunications structure, embarked on a major £10bn rationalisation and upgrade project (the 21st Century Network). A number of companies were selected to supply the various equipment required, one of which was Huawei, a Chinese telecommunications company. A contract for supply of transmission and access equipment, including routers, was signed in 2005, with this being deployed across the network from January 2007. Most of the concerns surrounding Huawei relate to its perceived links to the Chinese State. Huawei denies direct links with the Chinese Government or military, though the Committee notes that such links are considered normal in China. Huawei has also invested in the Cyber Security Evaluation Centre (the Cell), and the Committee is concerned that a Hauwei-run Cell is responsible for providing assurance about Huawei products. The National Security Adviser should review the effectiveness of the Cell as a matter of urgency and GCHQ must have greater oversight. The risk to the CNI must be managed properly: alerts for foreign investment in CNI; risk assessment; ministers must be informed.

This book was released on 2012-03-08 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this report the Joint Committee on the National Security Strategy finds that the National Security Strategy should address more fundamental questions about the UK's role in the world and its relationship with the USA and other allies. The Strategy also needs to be subject to a much wider public debate. The Committee says that: there is no evidence that the NSS has influenced decisions made since the Strategic Defence and Security Review; there should be an "overarching strategy", a document designed to guide government decision-making and crisis management both at home and on the international stage; the Government's assertion that there will be no reduction in the UK's influence on the world stage is wholly unrealistic in the medium to long term and the UK needs to plan for a changing, and more partnership-dependent, role in the world. The Government's unwillingness to provide the Committee with all the information it has asked for about the National Security Risk Assessment means that it is unable to give Parliament any assurances about its adequacy. The report also notes concern that the National Security Council's oversight of security issues is not sufficiently broad and strategic, given that it was deeply involved in operations in Libya and failed to discuss the national security implications of the Eurozone crisis or the possibility of Scottish independence.
