| Description: |
You can think of the European Union and the United States as the two main hubs of global information and communication networks. These hubs are essentially key pieces of a complex interconnected and interdependent ecosystem that makes up the global economy. Their connection also supports the political and social ties on both sides of the Atlantic and their links to the rest of the world. The reality is they are both facing a growing dynamic cyber threat landscape that is indifferent to national borders and the potential impact of threat actors is asymmetric to the effort of the threat actors involved. Leaders around the world, including the G7 have recognized that this interconnectedness and interdependence is a huge vulnerability and the potential “knock on” or “contagion” effects of a cyber-attack may have massive and devastating consequences to the global economy. As a result, there has been significant efforts on both sides of the Atlantic to develop and evolve the related legal and regulatory landscape. All these initiatives with a view and effort towards convergence and almost “harmonization”. This means that understanding the business value chain globally and the associated risks and regulatory concerns is an imperative for a cyber leader. Factor in geopolitics, complex data flows and governance, not to forget related issues such as BREXIT and you can appreciate the challenge for a cyber leader is immense. |
