    Order Code RL32114 Botnets, Cybercrime, and Cyberterrorism: Vulnerabilities and Policy Issues for Congress Updated January 29, 2008 Clay Wilson Specialist in Technology and National Security Foreign Affairs, Defense, and Trade Division Botnets, Cybercrime, and Cyberterrorism: Vulnerabilities and Policy Issues for Congress Summary Cybercrime is becoming more organized and established as a transnational business. High technology online skills are now available for rent to a variety of customers, possibly including nation states, or individuals and groups that could secretly represent terrorist groups. The increased use of automated attack tools by cybercriminals has overwhelmed some current methodologies used for tracking Internet cyberattacks, and vulnerabilities of the U.S. critical infrastructure, which are acknowledged openly in publications, could possibly attract cyberattacks to extort money, or damage the U.S. economy to affect national security. In April and May 2007, NATO and the United States sent computer security experts to Estonia to help that nation recover from cyberattacks directed against government computer systems, and to analyze the methods used and determine the source of the attacks.1 Some security experts suspect that political protestors may have rented the services of cybercriminals, possibly a large network of infected PCs, called a “botnet,” to help disrupt the computer systems of the Estonian government. DOD officials have also indicated that similar cyberattacks from individuals and countries targeting economic,

First, it divides the process-attribution-intotwo categories: what-attribution (what kind of attack is this?) and who-attribution (who is responsiblefor this attack?). Then, it analyzes, in detail, how and why our adversaries' use of computer technology blurs the distinctions between what is now cybercrime, cyberterrorism, and cyberwarfare. The Article goes on to analyze how and why computer technology and the blurring of these distinctions erode our ability to mount an effective response to threats of either type.

Executive Summary After three decades of development, adoption, and innovation, the Internet stands at the core of modern society. The same network that connects family and friends across the world similarly ties together all aspects of daily life, from the functioning of the global economy to the operation of governments. The digitization of daily life is the defining feature of the 21st century. While the pervasiveness of Internet-enabled technology brings significant benefits, it also brings serious threats—not only to our economy and safety, but also to our trust in computer systems.1 The Internet is central to modern life, yet major state-sponsored cyberattacks persist in disrupting Internet access and function. These attacks undermine faith in government and public trust in democratic institutions. Attribution attempts to date have been unable to deter states from building malicious code for even greater destructive capabilities. In response, we propose the formation of an attribution organization based on international private sector coordination.

The Connnission and national experts were sched­ uled to discuss the document again this month, before in­ viting connnents from national business associations. In the meantime, however, Brussels has been taken by surprise by the publication of the confidential preliminary draft in a respected German financial newspaper. Connnission offi­ cials are now trying to counter criticism of business rep­ resentatives, who have described the draft as being "too narrowly conceived, contradictory, and impractical." The regulation would relieve the parties both from no­ tifying the Connnission and from applying for an exemption for a restrictive licensing agreement (as they are required to do now) if the latter meets the criteria set out in the draft regulation. A block exemption would greatly ease the Connnission's work load because the applications for exemp­ tions have been piling up by the tens of thousands.

Arms Control and International Security Papers Volume I, Number 20 I October 20, 2020 International Security in Cyberspace: New Models for Reducing Risk International Security in Cyberspace: New Models for Reducing Risk by Christopher A. Ford1 In this ACIS Paper, Assistant Secretary Ford recounts the evolution of U.S. cyberspace security diplomacy over the last several years, describing the difficulty of making traditional "arms control" concepts work in this novel domain, but emphasizing the valuable contributions nonetheless already being made through the articulation of voluntary, nonbinding norms of responsible state behavior and a shift to a more explicitly deterrence-focused cyberspace security policy. In this ever more Internet-connected age, it is no challenge of enormous magnitude, and one to which surprise that cyber threats continue to increase. The the non-authoritarian world is still only in the early more indispensable such connectivity is for commerce, stages of mounting effective responses. communications, and innumerable aspects of daily life, the more that malicious actors see opportunities to Success in meeting these challenges requires a steal (or hold hostage) the information lifeblood of our whole-of-government response, and such a broad contemporary economy, or otherwise to profit response is indeed underway pursuant to the broad malevolently from modern dependencies.
