Last week news broke<\/a> that an international alliance of business groups had penned a letter to Chinese Premier, Li Keqiang, imploring him to change China\u2019s draft cybersecurity law, which many fear will significantly hamper<\/a> free trade and commerce with the Asian giant.<\/p>\n

This week China’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs sought to dispel those concerns, claiming that the law<\/a> wouldn\u2019t \u2018carry out differential treatment and will not create obstacles and barriers for international trade and foreign businesses investing in China.\u2019 The Chinese MFA addressed several of the specific concerns raised by the businesses leaders, including fears relating \u00a0to mandated government access to data during \u2018criminal investigations\u2019 which Beijing claims is \u2018necessary for safeguarding national security and investigating crime.\u2019 The MFA also said companies would be permitted to send data offshore for business purposes, but with the caveat that this would be subject to a \u2018security evaluation\u2019. They explained that \u2018these evaluations are for supervising and guaranteeing that the security of this data accords with China’s security standards,\u2019 before adding that \u2018the concerns of foreign investors and businesses invested in China are unnecessary.\u2019<\/p>\n

Thailand\u2019s Defence Council has approved a new 2017\u201321<\/em> draft Master Plan for National Defence Against Cyber Threats. <\/em>The new plan<\/a> hopes to establish a \u2018ministry-level\u2019 cyber centre next year. The new centre will be established by the Office of the Defence Permanent Secretary, with the assistance of the Defence Information and Space Technology Department. The Masterplan includes six key areas of focus, which appear to take in a much wider remit than traditional Defence issues. In addition to work plans to protect critical infrastructure and prepare for \u2018cyber operations\u2019, additional pillars look to develop cyber skills, leverage national \u2018cyber potential\u2019, and boost cooperation on cyber issues.<\/p>\n

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has put out a call<\/a> for ideas, feedback, and big picture thinking on Current and Future States of Cybersecurity in the Digital Economy.<\/em> Acting on behalf of the White House\u2019s recently-announced Commission on Enhancing National Cybersecurity<\/em> NIST placed a request for information in the US Federal Register seeking feedback on a wide range of potential cyber issues. Matters up for discussion range from CNI protection, Cybersecurity Insurance, R&D, IOT<\/a>, international markets, public awareness and education, identity access and management and the cybersecurity workforce. The private sector has jumped at the chance<\/a> to provide feedback, with best practices, the role of the government in regulation, privacy protection and the formation of international norms for appropriate state behaviour already on their agendas for discussion. Recommendations and comments will be accepted<\/a> up until 9 September.<\/p>\n

Malaysia has announced<\/a> that it will create a special \u2018cyber court\u2019 in Kuala Lumpur to hear cybercrime cases. Prosecutors and judges will be required to have knowledge of information security issues to better enable them to understand the intricacies and nuances of the crimes they prosecute and hear. The court is intended to also take the strain off criminal and civil courts which are hearing an ever-increasing number of cybercrime cases. If the KL court is successful, the Prime Minister\u2019s Department has plans to roll out new courts in Johor and Penang, followed by other states.<\/p>\n

Wrapping up this week, techcrunch<\/em> has a great list<\/a> of \u2018hacker movies\u2019 for the cybersecurity practitioner that won\u2019t have you cringing (or yelling) at the screen and Passcode<\/em> has launched a \u2018cybersecurity book club\u2019<\/a> for the more literarily-inclined. First up is Thomas Rid\u2019s Rise of the Machines<\/em>. For the internationally minded, be sure to check out our friend Sico van der Meer\u2019s latest piece on Foreign policy instruments to increase future cybersecurity<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
