By Megan KruseFormer Director, Advocacy and Communications

As we recently announced, the Global Commission on the Stability of Cyberspace (GCSC) will host a lunch panel on “Cyber Diplomacy Meets InfoSec and Technology” alongside IETF 102 on Tuesday, 17 July. Registration opens today in two time slots for global time zone fairness, at 08:00 UTC and 20:00 UTC. Register here.

The Global Commission on the Stability of Cyberspace is developing norms and policy initiatives that intend to counter the risk to the overall security and stability of cyberspace due to rise of offensive cyber-activities, and especially those by states. During this session, the Commission wants to inform and engage with the IETF community on its work so far and the work that is in the pipeline.

The Internet Society is assisting with logistics. Internet Society Chief Internet Technology Officer and GCSC Commissioner Olaf Kolkman will moderate the panel. The panelists are:

  • Irina Rizmal, researcher at the DiploFoundation specialized in policy analysis in matters pertaining to national security and defense.
  • Bill Woodcock, Commissioner and Executive Director at Packet Clearing House, the non-profit agency that supports critical Internet infrastructure.
  • Jeff Moss, Commissioner, founder of Black Hat and Defcon, member of the DHS security council, and former ICANN CSO.

Venue

The panel takes place during lunch on Tuesday, 17 July, at the Fairmont The Queen Elizabeth in Montreal alongside IETF 102. Lunch will be provided to those who pre-register.

Registration

Pre-registration is required to attend this briefing panel in person. Registration is now open, so register here.

This event will also be webcast and audiocast. Pre-registration (or IETF attendance) is not required to attend online. Watch this space or the session page for more information and links on remote participation.
