Preventing and Mitigating ICT-Related Conflict: Cyber Stability Conference 2018 Summary Report

UNIDIR’s 2018 Cyber Stability Conference, held in Geneva on 26 September 2018, focused on identifying options and pathways to prevent and mitigate ICT-related conflict. The conference brought together representatives from government, the private sector, academia and civil society to explore current State strategy and practice; developments at regional level; private sector engagement; and prospects for reinvigorating multilateral engagement to address the growing threat of ICT-related conflict. Through the lens of these different topics, the conference looked at the widening gap between our collective aspirations and State practice, identifying different approaches involving different actors to narrowing it.
