Some Member States have proposed the use of a common standard survey of national
implementation. In this regard, Mexico and Australia are jointly leading an effort to propose
the use of a common standard survey of national implementation, that can further be used
to identify gaps and barriers to implementation, which could then better inform future
cooperation, more focused training programmes and tailored capacity building. The proposal
to be submitted is already co-sponsored by Argentina, Canada, Chile, Denmark, France,
Indonesia, Kenya, New Zealand, Pacific Island Forum Member States, Poland, and South
Africa, and will be open to further co-sponsorship by interested States.
•
Member States highlighted the importance of match-making between capacity-building
requests and offers, which could be a key component of a global mechanism. Furthermore,
effective and enhanced coherence can also result from the acknowledgement of tailor-made
capacity building that is responsive to different national and regional situations.
•
Taking into consideration the undeniable need to work hand-in-hand with all stakeholders,
an additional recommendation should be introduced to ensure constant feedback with the
private sector, civil society, and academia, in whatever format the regular institutional
dialogue on cybersecurity might occur.
•
An informal early warning system could also be established to aid Member States in promptly
identifying cyber-attacks that could spill over to other countries, share experiences in
identifying common patterns of attacks, and in general to foster confidence among Member
States.
•
An additional recommendation can also be introduced to ensure that the efforts undertaken
by Member States are adequately linked and are coherent with the specific actions (28, 30
and 31) on cybersecurity proposed by the Secretary General’s Agenda for Disarmament.
