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.

This month the UN General Assembly adopted the two resolutions – ‘Developments in the field of information and telecommunications in the context of international security’ and ‘Countering the use of information and communications technologies for criminal purposes’ – and thereby opened a new chapter in the global discussion on international information security.

 The resolutions were supported by several countries and coauthored by more than 30 countries, but did not get the support of the United States and the European Union members.
