In December 2018 ICT4Peace launched the report Trust and Attribution in Cyberspace: A Proposal for an Independent Network of Organisations engaging in Attribution Peer Review:
On 29 and 30 August 2019, ICT4Peace Foundation, with support and sponsorship from the German Federal Foreign Office, conducted a two-day workshop on trusted attribution in cyberspace. The workshop was organised with the intention of inciting debates among key stakeholders concerning different attribution practices and the idea of creating an independent network of organisations engaging in peer-review assessments and substantive analyses. The workshop was attended by more than twenty representatives from civil society, industry, academia, and governments. A short report summarising the main workshop outputs can be found here.
Inspired and motivated by the high levels of engagement exhibited by the participants over the course of the workshop, ICT4Peace Foundation plans to take discussions forward and explore the possibilities for conducting fact-finding exercises around a test case. It strives to conduct another workshop in summer 2020 (tentative).
