FINAL AGENDA ITEM 2: ADOPTION OF AGENDA 6. The Meeting adopted the Agenda, which appears as ANNEX 2. AGENDA ITEM 3: CONSIDERATION AND ASSESSMENT OF PROPOSALS BY THE STUDY GROUP 1.1. TOR of the Study Group 7. The Meeting agreed on the updated draft of the Terms of Reference (TOR) of the ARF Open Ended Study Group on Confidence Building Measures to Reduce the Risk of Conflict Stemming from the Use of ICTs which had incorporated input from the deliberations of ARF Participants during the 2nd Open Ended Study Group, particularly with regard to the objectives, mandates and rules of procedures of the TOR. The Meeting noted that the TOR will serve as a reference document for future Open Ended Study Groups, enabling the Open Ended Study Group to determine its next course of action under the ISM on ICTs Security. The TOR appears as ANNEX 3. 1.2. Immediate Activities 8. The Meeting deliberated on the three proposed initiatives which had previously been tabled at the 1st Study Group held in Tokyo, Japan, on 18 January 2018, and the two proposed initiatives that were tabled during the 2 nd Study Group. The Meeting took note of the following: a. CBM #1: Establishment of ARF Points of Contact (POC) Directory on Security of and in the Use of ICTs (Co-Lead Countries: Malaysia and Australia), which aims to strengthen real-time communication between ARF participating countries, particularly in order to reduce tension and risk of conflicts arising from misinterpretation of cyber incidents. The meeting agreed to proceed with the exchange of information on ARF POCs. The meeting noted that there was a special drafting session convened for CBM#1 between 2nd Study Group and 1st ISM on ICTs Security, to further deliberate the proposal. Most comments raised by the ARF participants during that session have been incorporated into the revised concept paper of CBM#1 tabled in today’s meeting. One ARF Participant was of the view that CBM#1 required further discussion in relation to relevant procedures and policies prior to the establishment of the directory. It was also noted that few participants have expressed their preference to have single Point Co-Chairs’ Summary Report of the 1st ARF ISM on ICTs Security Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, 25-26 April 2018 Page 3 of 8
