Workshop

Strengthening regional cyber norms guidance through practice-based approaches: the case of ransomware

EU CyberNet and LAC4 are co-organising a workshop “Strengthening regional cyber norms guidance through practice-based approaches: the case of ransomware” as a side-event of the UN Open-ended Working Group.

Throughout the past years, countries in Latin America and Caribbean have been dealing with an increasing number of ransomware incidents. While most of the public and international attention has revolved around specific incidents, such as Costa Rica, other States such as Dominican Republic, Brazil, Peru, Colombia, Chile, and many others have experienced the disproportionate impact of ransomware incidents against government and other critical national infrastructure.

With the aim of enhancing a practice-based and regionally sensitive norms guidance, RUSI, Estonia, EU Cyber Net/LAC4, Chile and the Dominican Republic organise this workshop to focus on responses to ransomware incidents in Latin America and the Caribbean and invite representatives to share experiences and collectively map how a cross-cutting regional concern, such as ransomware, can inform regional norms guidance.

Event is invite-only.
