UN adopts India-backed data security resolutions

Posted on January 2, 2019 by Dissent

Dipanjan Roy Chaudhury reports:

The United Nations has adopted two resolutions, proposed by Russia and backed by India, on International Information Security (IIS) system, marking progress towards creating the world’s first code of conduct in the digital sphere.
