GOAL 2: Establish relevant Technical Measure (Entities and Standards) to eliminate Cyber Threats and Attacks, enhance Cybersecurity and promote Cybersecurity. Strategy Statement: Defining and controlling technical measures to ensure security standards are implemented with the required expertise and in accordance with international trends. Strategy Guidelines: 1. Establishment of a National Computer Incident Response Team (“CIRT”) that is capable of dealing with relevant Cybersecurity Threats and Attack on citizens, tourist, businesses and government in Samoa. The CIRT must have the capability to identify combat, respond and manage Cyberspace Threats or Attacks; as well as enhance Cyberspace security in Samoa. Furthermore CIRT must be responsible for the computer forensic component of criminal investigations relative to computer technology or electronic evidence. The National CIRT must also gather its own intelligence instead of relying on secondary reporting incidents. 2. Development of a unit within Police Services (Ministry of Police) that serves as a single point of contact for Cybercrime with the ancillary purpose of data collection and increasing available information. 3. Establishment of a Child Online Protection Working Group (“COPWG”) consisting of but not limited to the Ministry of Police, (“MOP”); OAG; Ministry of Education Sports and Culture (“MESC”), Ministry of Women, Community and Social Development (“MWCSD”), Ministry of Justice and Courts Administrations (MJCA), Ministry of Communications and Information Technology (MCIT), Office of the Regulator (OOTR), Social Welfare Services such as Samoa Victim Support Group (SVSG), and other child protection NGOs; Internet Service Providers (ISP), Electronic Service Providers (ESP); Telecommunications Mobile and Fixed Network Providers; other Hi-Tech Companies; Owners of Internet Cafes and other public access providers e.g. libraries and telecentres. 4. Develop or Identify Standards to be implemented to ensure that the rest of the Cybersecurity related attacks are minimised. 5.

Furthermore the CIRT and other relevant stakeholders must be responsible for the implementation and control of the developed standards. Samoa National Cybersecurity Strategy 2016 - 2021 8
