Indonesia\u2019s Cabinet Secretary Andi Widjajanto has foreshadowed<\/a> the introduction of new cyber security legislation, stating that new cyber laws will be released by President Joko Widodo in October. He also confirmed earlier reports that Indonesia will be launching a national cyber agency. The new body will oversee the country\u2019s cyber security matters and \u2018coordinate with the Coordinating Political, Legal and Security Affairs Ministry.\u2019 New funds have been allocated for the agency in Indonesia\u2019s draft 2016 budget.<\/p>\n

The Pentagon has narrowed down those responsible for rummaging around the unclassified email network of the US Military\u2019s Joint Staff last month<\/a>. Officials have reportedly<\/a> linked the breach\u2014which utilised an old, unpatched vulnerability\u2014to Russia but aren\u2019t willing to point the finger at a specific organisation or individual. They said that the attack \u2018bore the hallmarks\u2019 of a state actor. According to CrowdStrike, the compromise is reflective of a much larger<\/a> uptick in Russian attacks against US networks following the Obama administration\u2019s Ukraine related sanctions.<\/p>\n

The Cybersecurity Information Sharing Act<\/em>\u00a0has again failed<\/a> to pass through the US Senate, this time after key backer and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell withdrew the bill from consideration. McConnell acted when it became clear a consensus wouldn\u2019t be reached before the Senates\u2019 August recess period. The bill, which passed the House last year, is now tied up in the Senate over privacy concerns. The House also passed another<\/a> modified bill in April, The Protecting Cyber Networks Act<\/em>, which included extra provisions aimed at alleviating privacy concerns. But progress has stalled with both bills meeting resistance from Senators and civil society organisations.<\/p>\n

Reports this week surfaced<\/a> that China will now place \u2018cyber police units\u2019 into major internet companies to help prevent fraud and \u2018the spreading of rumours\u2019. The move was labelled<\/a> by the Wall Street Journal <\/em>as unusually hands on from the Ministry of State Security, who usually rely on companies and ISPs to enforce the restrictions they set. The move elicited \u2018concerns\u2019 from the White House\u2019s National Security Council. Reports on the new units have been devoid of detail, failing to explain when the new cops would commence their roles, which companies would be impacted, and what work they\u2019d be carrying out. A researcher at the University of Hong Kong believes this is because the cops are already in-situ, with the media having misinterpreted<\/a> a Xinhua news article quoting an official who was in fact calling for an expansion in their already existing role.<\/p>\n

Professor Atsuhiro Goto has been selected by the Japanese Cabinet Office to become<\/a> the Special Advisor on cyber security to protect critical infrastructure. The position is attached to the Strategic Innovation Project (SIP) Program which is already busily working on several special projects, including enhancing online resilience and online security for cutting edge technology such as driverless cars. Other projects include planning how to develop and maintain a skilled IT literate workforce into the future, which will draw on Professor Goto\u2019s existing experience nurturing promising IT talent in Japan\u2019s university system.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
