Increasingly frequent and severe cyberattacks targeting the private sector are fueling debates around the world over whether or not to allow corporations to engage in active cyber defense.
As part of DC CyberWeek, Carnegie’s Cyber Policy Initiative hosted the launch of the Carnegie report Private Sector Cyber Defense: Can Active Measure Help Stabilize Cyberspace?
This report assesses the potential risks and benefits of creating space for a legitimate practice of private sector active cyber defense internationally, and explores how insurance companies and policies could provide a framework to bound such activity and incentivize responsible conduct.
