Cyberattacks are increasingly being used by state actors to project power and for political goals, intelligence projects and military purposes. In addition to the use of cybermeans in conventional armed conflicts, more and more conflicts are being waged in the digital space by state and non-state actors. Accordingly, international cooperation at both diplomatic and technical/operational levels and in the area of coordinated training is indispensable for reducing cyber-risks. The protection of Switzerland's foreign and security policy interests must also be ensured in cyberspace. Switzerland therefore works at both the diplomatic and technical/operational levels, as well as in the area of coordinated training, to strengthen international cooperation to minimise cyber-risks. M15 Strengthening of digital International Geneva Description International Geneva organisations are increasingly confronted with threats in the digital space. If Switzerland wants to remain an attractive location for international organisations and NGOs, it must examine how good conditions can be created for these organisations in the digital space as well. Furthermore, international organisations and NGOs based in Switzerland should be assisted with prevention. The Confederation is providing expertise to help set up an Information Sharing and Analysis Centre (ISAC) for such organisations. In doing so, it is contributing to and participating in the mutual exchange of experience between these organisations. Key actors Priorities The Federal Council has set itself the goal of positioning Switzerland, and in particular International Geneva, as a leading location for debates on digitalisation and technology. This means ensuring that Switzerland can offer the international organisations and international non-governmental organisations (NGOs) based here the best possible conditions. Since many of these organisations are politically exposed, they are frequently the target of cyberattacks. Switzerland must therefore examine how it can improve the conditions for these organisations to protect themselves against cyberthreats. Background and need for action Overview of measure - Establishment of an ISAC for International Geneva: The sharing of information and experience between international organisations will be fostered through the establishment of an ISAC. Attractive conditions for digital services for international organisations and NGOs will be examined and created.
