International Cybersecurity Norms

Carnegie’s Cyber Policy Initiative aims to contribute to international cybersecurity norms. This includes our Cyber Norms Index and Timeline in partnership with the United Nations and additional related research and policy papers available on this website. We also engage with governments and commercial actors to shape and promote feasible norms.

Recent high-profile cyberattacks targeting financial institutions have exposed the vulnerability of the global financial system to hackers. While the attackers have traditionally been profit-driven non-state actors, there is a growing number of state-sponsored cyberattacks—a new and significant risk to the financial system. What can the U.S. government and financial institutions do to better protect against these threats? What roles do U.S. Cyber Command, the intelligence community, and the private sector play in confronting this threat?

Carnegie’s Cyber Policy Initiative hosted a discussion exploring the growing cyber threat to the financial sector and its implications for national security.
