Multinational Experiment 7. Outcome 3 - Cyber Domain Objective 3.3. Guidelines for Decision Makers Version 2.0

Abstract

Multinational Experiment 7 (MNE 7) is a two-year multinational and interagency Concept Development and Experimentation (CD&E) effort aimed to improve coalition capabilities to ensure access to and use of the global commons domains (air, maritime, space and cyber) through application of the comprehensive approach. The aim of MNE7 Objective 3.3 is to improve partners' and coalition members' understanding of the current legal frameworks applicable to the cyber domain in order to better handle cyber incidents, while providing decision makers with the appropriate tools for decision-making and options for response. Guidelines for Decision Makers - Legal Analysis for Cyber Incidents (GDMs) are envisaged as the MNE7 Obj. 3.3 solution to provide the Decision Makers legal advisors and Subject-matter Experts (SMEs), primarily at the political and the strategic level, with a practical instrument to: a. pin down, in a coherent framework, the main elements and features of a given cyber incident; b. support the analysis conducted by legal experts through an international legal perspective; c. identify the legal threshold crossed by a cyber incident in terms of violation of the international law; d. recommend, through the legal assessment process and the dialogue among legal experts, lawful options for response.
