Objectives

On the one hand, the track addresses the threats emerging from cyber warfare policies that include the worldwide and total surveillance of all digital communication media, the espionage and sabotage via the Internet endangering the main civil infrastructures, and the massive military armament that relies on information technology.

On the other hand, the track aims at peace in cyberspace in a very general sense meaning the peaceful use of the cyberspace for the benefit of human kind and the environment as well as for international understanding and worldwide development.
