Outcome of Opening Session (2) • two keynote speeches were presented: • The first keynote speaker was ITU TSB Director Mr. Malcolm Johnson whose speech mainly focused on challenges of cyber threats to the world especially in developing countries, on spam threats to developing countries and WCIT-12 efforts on encouraging Member States to cooperate to prevent spam, on efforts of ITU on dealing with these challenges, on collaboration of ITU with other SDOs on ICT security standardization activities. • The second keynote speaker was ITU-T SG17 chairman Mr. Arkadiy Kremer. His speech mainly focused on challenges in ICT infrastructure development, main pillars for providing confidence & security, ITU-T SG17 Standardization activities, to develop an effective security strategy and participation of developing countries in SG17.

Conclusion of Opening Session This workshop aimed to present activities and achievements of standardization on cybersecurity, data protection, trust services and cloud computing, focused in methodology of securing ICT within critical infrastructure, heard a reaction from security industry, addressed the interests and needs of users, and encouraged collaboration between SDOs in security standardization for the special needs of developing countries. International standards are tools offering exactly technical, procedural, and administrative defense that are internationally applicable. ITU-T, specifically ITU-T SG17 made great efforts to bridge the standardization gap between the developed countries and developing countries to build the confidence and security in the use of ICTs.

Session 1 conclusions • Although Zambia like most developing countries has limited capacity in addressing security challenges, reasonable progress has been achieved in putting in place the necessary institutional framework. • New security approaches are required in order to enable large scale deployment of IoT systems.

Session 1 conclusions (cnt’d) • SG 17 should consider organizing a special session to address security challenges related to mobile financial services. • Strong collaboration between ITU and UPU on security is vital especially in areas such as secure e-mail and financial transactions.

Session 1 conclusions (cnt’d) SG17 and IEC/TC57/WG15 should cooperate and share expertise on smart-grid security. Security should be embedded in the system design in order to lower operational costs.

Session 2 conclusions • To identify key topics/requirements for ICT security (through presentations) • Need of stepping up “Authentication capabilities” for mobile on-line trust • Use of “light weight crypto” for connected cars and ITS security • Critical Infra Security – Energy sector • Need for interoperability of secure enterprise mobility across providers • Identity Based Attestation and Open Exchange Protocol (IBOPS) • Big Data (BD) security and privacy

Session 2 conclusionsOutput on Objective-2(cont.) • To explore the way to develop security standards in ITU-T (through the Round Table) • The authentication landscape is changing rapidly, and the ID-ecosystem is also changing. A new use case (requirement) is authentication/identification on demand. The work of the FIDO Alliance and OASIS TC IBOPS is to be looked at; and collaboration is suggested. • There is a need for a minimum level of security in the area of ITS and IoT environments. ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC27/WG2 is standardizing light-weight crypto and is seeking collaboration in terms of how to use such crypto. • Critical infrastructures are to be looked at. There is room for cooperation and standardization between military and civil. Government need standards on electronic signatures and e-IDs. ITU-T should consider standardization cooperation with European bodies (like ENISA).

Session 2 conclusionsOutput on Objective-3(cont.) • To explore the way to develop security standards in ITU-T (through the Round Table) • ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC27 is doing work in data management and governance, and on secure data storage, also on data discovery, which are subject to standardization. Real-time security analytics for data management should be considered. ISO is doing a gap analysis on big data; there is an opportunity for collaboration with ITU-T (SG17). • TC 215 has developed several health informatics standards on such as on information governance, policy management etc., and to potentially work with ITU-T.

Session 2 conclusionsOutput on Objective-4(cont.) Summary: • Mobile security (Authentication) - FIDO Alliance and OASIS TC IBOPS • Utilization of light weight crypto for ITS & IoT – ISO/IEC JTC1/SC27 and others • Critical infrastructures - European bodies (like ENISA) • Big Data security & PII - ISO/IEC JTC1/SC27 • Health informatics - TC215

Session 3 conclusions Make standards less complex and more applicable Create standards for the needs Collaboration is the key Standardization is very important to be in the same track Sharing known vulnerabilities and threats make significant difference Data protection becomes more important with the online services

Session 3 conclusions • Operational experience and demand from the field are very important • ITU-D is a great opportunity for creating widely using standards by developing countries • Start a joint project with ITU-D to enhance the business use of standards

Session 3 conclusions • It will be very beneficial if the experts help countries to implement the standards • Encourage governments, organizastions, companies, and academia to participate

Session 4 conclusionsSummary 1/3 Session 4 discussed “ICT role in critical infrastructure protection” under 3 different perspectives, as follows: • Frameworks and international collaboration:Mr Koyabe presented “Critical Information Infrastructure Protection (CIIP): Commonwealth Perspective”, with insights on a cybergovernance model adopted by those countries, and Mr McCrum presented ”Toward a partnership-based framework for establishing secure ICT infrastructure in developing countries”, with proposals on regulatory measures, ITU role and mutual recognition agreements (MRA);

Session 4 conclusionsSummary 2/3 Standardization issues on CIIP:Mr. Zolotnikov presented “Critical infrastructure protection: standardization to protect critical infrastructure objects”, with some key principles of secured system development to be standardized, including industrial control systems (ICS), and Mr. Strunge presented “Security by Design in Smart Grids – A Need to Rethink ICT in Power System Controls”, including proposals on automated certificate handling, whitelists, and multiple associated parallel PKI;

Session 4 conclusionsSummary 3/3 • Role of ICT and sector regulators:Mr. Alsamhan presented “ICT Regulator Role on National Security and Critical Infrastructure Protection”, with Saudi Arabia experiences on CIP, national CERT deployment, and security enforcement measures, and Mr. Guimaraes presented “Critical telecommunication infrastructure protection in Brazil” with insights on legislation, methodologies and an information system under development (SIEC). These perspectives were further developed during the final discussion panel. Some aspects discussed in Session 4 could be interesting to ITU-T Qs 2/17, Q4/17, 6/17, 7/17 and 11/17. In particular, ITU-D Q3/2 was highly interested on Mr. Koyabe’s presentation.
