as well as other international Standard Institutes for Framework (NIST, EBIOS, etc.), and international and regional CERTS.  Use existing networks and relationships with the Government’s key international partners and build new links with other international entities to share information about current and nascent threats, adding value to existing thought and expertise.  Establish strategic bilateral relations and open dialogue channels with key stakeholders to share information about potential incidents.  Build international partnerships to end the perceived impunity of Cyber Criminals acting against Lebanon by bringing criminals in overseas jurisdictions to justice.  Cooperate with the international community on Cyber Space issues to harmonize and increase the efficiency of a shared body of laws and regulations. This shall allow the Government of Lebanon to optimize timing, procedures, and costs, thus establishing or adapting to common mechanisms for crisis management, communication, and de-escalation. Lebanon must continue to work for the universalization of certain standards applied in Cyber Space with a view to enhancing its security. This approach should be based on three principles:  Prevention: the inherent uncertainty of the attribution of an attack should encourage the States to concentrate their efforts on preventive measures;  Cooperation: improving cooperation within the international community on Cyber Space issues is an effective way to increase stability through better mutual understanding and even trust between stakeholders. This will also create common mechanisms of crisis management, communication, and de-escalation. Lebanon must work towards the conclusion of an international agreement on the obligations of a State, the infrastructure of which could be used for malicious purposes, such as “launch pads” in order to proxy-attack other countries (“triangulation” of a Cyber Attack), etc.  Stability: the country must continue to promote the principle of the existence of certain rights enabling States that are victims of computer attacks to take appropriate measures while maintaining international peace and security. 3.3 Reinforcement of State capacities to support the development of ICT The State must initiate an awareness and training programs that familiarize its civil servants working in the IT and ICT sectors as well as its citizens and professionals with good practices in digital uses.
