Abstract

Internet Security Governance covers the policy challenges that arise from building and governing security in the Internet’s architecture and key protocols. It includes the discussion of defensively oriented technical and legal topics that cross national boundaries and/or involve security of the underlying protocols and hardware which make up the Internet. Also discussed are international agreements, like the Wassenaar Arrangement, and the process of drafting, approving, and promulgating security standards for implementation across the Internet.

Keywords: cyber security, internet governance, encryption, export control
