Giles Merritt Director Security & Defence Agenda
Giles Merritt is among Brussels’ most influential commentators on EU issues. He was a pioneer of the public policy debate on Europe’s future, both as a jour- nalist and think-tanker.
Merritt is also the head of the SDA’s sister think-tank Friends of Europe, whose debates and reports cover the whole spectrum of non-defence topics of interest to EU-level policymakers, researchers and stakeholders. In addition, he is the editor of the policy journal Europe’s World launched in 2005 as an EU-wide platform for debate.
Merritt’s work with think-tanks began in the mid-1980s, when he devised and chaired a series of Business Policy Seminars on behalf of the Centre for European Policy Studies (CEPS). He went on to act as Moderator at the French-language debates organised by the Club de Bruxelles, and at many of the conferences held by Aspen Institute Italia. In 1992, he accepted an invitation to be the direc- tor of the new Philip Morris Institute for Public Policy Research (PMI), and was responsible for the highly successful series of quarterly Discussion Papers that PMI produced until its closure in 1999.
Merritt’s background as a journalist and commentator has been crucial to the success of the organi- sations he leads. From 1968 to 1983, Giles Merritt was a staff correspondent of the Financial Times and reported successively from London, Paris, Belfast/Dublin and Brussels. From 1984 to the pre- sent day, he has contributed columns on EU matters to the Op-Ed pages of the International Herald Tribune, and his articles range widely over political and economic issues.

4 SECURITY & DEFENCE AGENDA To mark the launch of the SDA’s in depth policy report “Cyber-security: The vexed question of global rules “ SDA Director Giles Merritt and report author Brigid Grauman welcomed a panel of high-level experts to discuss the complex challenges of global governance in cyber-space.
As Grauman explained, “The report is aimed at political decision makers who are increasingly aware of the threat, but do not understand the details and implications of that threat.”
The report is particularly provocative, by attempting to rank a number of nations in terms of cyber- preparedness. While obviously inherently provisional, Grauman vindicated this choice, saying that it mirrored international realities. “Every country has its strengths and weaknesses, and some have reacted much sooner to these challenges than others.”
“Every country has its stengths and weaknesses, and some have reacted much sooner to these changes than others.”
Brigid Grauman
Indeed, there exists a great deal of basic disagreement between the experts consulted for this re- port on terms such as “cyber-attack”, or “cyber-war”, as well more existential governance issues, such as concepts of freedom of information.
It is this combination of both areas of agreement and points of contention that gives the report such insights, Grauman concluded. This balance is also reflected in its policy recommendations, which include a call for greater transparency, the need to establish assurances and trust through the use of secure mechanisms, and building increased public awareness on the nature of cyber- security threats.
The issue of public private partnerships (PPP) - a structure of cyber-governance where industry and government collaborate on new rules and regulations - was taken up by Demosthenes Ikonomou, Head of Secure Services & Project Support Activities for the European Network Security Agency. Avowing that “we are not dealing with a national problem, it is a pan-European problem”, Ikono- mou expressed some concern about the success of PPP in Europe.
“Many that come to these PPP meetings do not come with an idea in mind of collaboration, they come wanting to see what the governments are saying – to see if they intend to legislate.”
This approach to PPP as “a damage control exercise” must change if there is to be meaningful dia- logue between industry and government on cyber governance, the EU official affirmed. If PPP is to

be done better, “you want a feedback loop on how future regulation might be more appropriate…. Today, much of our regulation is reactive, because developments in ICT cannot be anticipated” as in other sectors.
Such reactive measures will never keep pace with threats, and will not meet today’s cyber- governance needs. The solution? “As we cannot have proactive regulation, we need a real, close partnership, to at least respond as quickly as possible.”
“It’s hackers that show us what is actually possible. They are our view into what is achievable in the online world.”
Jeff Moss
Next, Vice President and Chief Security Officer of the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) Jeff Moss, gave the perspective of his global internet management agency. He started by advocating engagement with the communities of hackers that are out pushing the boundaries of cyber-space. These are the true pioneers in this domain, and should be listened to. “It is sometimes difficulty for governments to realise they are not in charge”, he warned.
“It’s hackers that show us what is actually possible. They are our view into what is achievable in the online world”, he continued. This is important, because” if you are trying to make risk based assess- ments for governance processes, you have to know what is possible, or your ignorance will impact everything you do down the road.”
Given this, Moss called for a multi-stakeholder approach. “To ensure a continuous and stable inter- net requires many stakeholders, many countries – you cannot take any one side on any issue.”
Raj Samani, Vice President and CTO of McAfee Europe, Middle East and Africa, further cautioned that whatever structure of governance you construct, you cannot ever completely remove the vul- nerability to threats. “We have to be realistic, people produce code, and as they do this, it is statisti- cally probable that there will be vulnerabilities within this code”.
Samani was also sceptical about the value of PPPs as the sole basis of cyber governance, due to the rapid pace of change in the cyber-threat landscape. “The challenge is, if we only meet up once a quarter, that’s a very reactive and cumbersome process.”
“The challenge is, if we only meet up once a quarter, that’s a very reactive and cumbersome process.”
Raj Samani
Thus claiming that “PPPs are all very good, but we have to recognise that they have their limits”, the industry representative advocated that consistency in advice may thus be a more useful goal than seeking total security through global governance. “It is important that we collaborate to provide one, consistent voice, to tell people how to stay safe.”
Later, NATO’s Jamie Shea, Deputy Assistant Secretary General for Emerging Security Challenges,
6 SECURITY & DEFENCE AGENDA NATO’s Jamie Shea, Deputy Assistant Secretary General for Emerging Security Challenges, engaged with issues of cooperation and governance between his organisation and the EU. For him, a distinct delegation of roles may be less important than simply agreeing on a common standard. “The prob- lem is that in cyber-space we have not identified the minimum standards – too much of it is volun- tary, and self-certification rarely stands up to stress tests.”
“We wait for the next attack to find out what we are good at and what we are not. That is not good enough.”
Jamie Shea
Moreover, the official was confident that NATO and the EU were finding the right balance in their relationship. “I’d argue this is an area where we’ve done rather well. Frankly, NATO has something in cyber which the Commission and the External Action Service see as useful.”
Yet when threats loom, the NATO representative avowed that practical capabilities, and a degree of self-knowledge, were of paramount importance. “What surge capability would be required to meet a crisis? How can we build in the alternative servers, bandwidth or redundancy to cope? Identifying such issues in advance is still inadequate in most organisations.”
Indeed, in a theme mirrored across the panel, such reactive responses are a poor approach to cy- ber-security. “We wait for the next attack to find out what we are good at and what we are not”, Shea lamented. “That is not good enough.”
Questions from the floor focused on the issue of government regulation. Brooks Tigner, Editor of Security Europe pointed out that the “Commission has been working with industry for years with not much result. If I was the Commission, I’d set a deadline - say, two years - before regulating.” Is it time governments took more control?
McAfee’s Samani defended industry’s progress on cooperation, pointing out that cyber governance involves an “incredibly complex eco-system” that includes software, industry manufacturers, hard- ware, internet providers and users. “We are doing the best we can to get around the table and set agendas aside”, he claimed, “but it is difficult.”
Similarly, Paul Tuthill from the University of Kent queried a recent US attempt to regulate the Do- main Name Server (DNS) architecture of the internet. “Now we are talking about US Congress wrap- ping their fingers around DNS – do we need to broaden the scope of control in this way?” ICANN’s Jeff Moss argued that such drastic measures would be counter-productive to strengthening cyber governance. Getting to the root of the PPP question, he pointed out that 90% of the inter- net’s architecture is privately owned. “How much can government actually meddle with private in- frastructure?” Blanket regulations and power-grabs will only lead to a mass migration to new forms of cyber communication, Moss warned. Given this, perhaps governments must learn to use the sys- tems that we already have?
Given such questions, it is clear that despite the limitations discussed today, a strong relationship between public and private actors will remain at the forefront of all efforts to effectively secure and govern cyber-space.
