MNE7 Access to the Global Commons Outcome 3 Cyber Domain. Framework of Processes to Support the Generation and Maintenance of Cyber Situational Awareness Within the Global Commons
Abstract
Nations and organisations require concepts and capabilities for anticipating, deterring, preventing, protecting against and responding to a disruption or a denial of access to the global commons domains (air, maritime, space and cyber) and for ensuring freedom of action within them, while taking into account their interrelationships. There is currently a gap in our ability to generate sufficient collaborative national and international situational awareness across the cyber domain. This generates a requirement for a generic and comprehensive framework that details the processes for generating sufficient collaborative national and international cyber situational awareness. Cyber situational awareness is required across the public and private sectors, and at a national and international level, if we are to truly provide a comprehensive and integrated response to sophisticated threats that can operate below the detection thresholds of many existing processes and systems. The aim of this paper is to provide a common framework of processes based on the Outcome 3 work that supports the generation of cyber situational awareness that will enhance the ability of decision makers to take those decisions to maintain the operation/capability/service for which they are responsible, in good time.
