*A collaborative approach to Internet Security*

The Internet (a global interconnected network of networks) has enabled a
global digital economy to flourish. Yet, the same interconnectedness that
fosters communication, opportunities, innovation and commerce on a global
scale, also means that participation in the global digital economy means
global interdependence and shared risk. Therefore, we have a common
interest in the security of this shared economic growth resource and a
collective responsibility
to care for the Internet. Further, the continued effectiveness of the
Internet as a driver for a vibrant and sustainable global digital economy
also depends on the Internet being a trusted platform for social
interaction and commerce.

As the Internet and its applications become ever more pervasive in our
daily lives through the Internet of Things, widespread use of sensors and
the digitization of biological traits, collaborative risk-based approaches
to Internet security are needed more than ever.

• How can we, as a global community, overcome silo approaches and evolve
beyond considering only one’s own security risks?
• How will we share resources to ensure the delivery of a more secure
Internet?
• How will we integrate the rights and expectations of users in security
solutions?
• How will we collaborate to empower e-entrepreneurs and SMEs to
effectively contribute to the overall security risk management of the
Internet?

Building on the OECD Recommendation on Digital Security Risk Management for
Economic and Social Prosperity, this session will highlight real world
examples of collaborative approaches to strengthen the security of the
Internet and its use, identify economic impediments to deployment of
Internet security solutions, and suggest ways forward so that the
Internet’s full potential can be realised.
