Cyber Stability Games – A Virtual Experience for Practitioners
13 October 2021, 13:00 CET
As part of the Cybersecurity Awareness Month, OSCE is organising the Cyber Stability Games – a virtual exercise for cyber practitioners organized in co-operation with Kaspersky and DiploFoundation and held on Webex.
The Cyber Stability Games are a capacity-building exercise intended to assist diplomats, policy researchers and other cyber professionals who do not have a technical background in learning about the complexities of technical attribution in a political context.
The exercise aims to teach players about the complexities of technical attribution; i.e. technical malware analysis. Action cards played, and thus decisions made by players through five turns, will either lead them to the most accurate technical analysis and help understand who is the culprit by collecting technical pieces of evidence, or will spark greater uncertainty and cyber instability if the riddle is not solved.

Singapore International Cyber Week (SICW) 2021
The sixth edition of SICW will take place from 4 to 8 October 2021, under the theme of “Living with COVID19 – Reimagining digital security risks and opportunities”. COVID-19 has accelerated digitalisation and resulted in a growing dependence on technology, but this has also increased our exposure to cyber attacks. While a handful of countries have started on the bumpy road to recovery, most are experiencing a resurgence in infections. Living with COVID-19 will be a prolonged reality that the global community has to come to terms with. As private and public stakeholders reposition themselves or recalibrate policies to promote digitalisation, what are the digital and cyber risks involved and how should we manage them? Amidst these risks, what are the new digital opportunities that did not exist pre-COVID-19? How can countries and organisations leverage these opportunities? These and many other questions will be tackled at SICW 2021.
Alongside the shift of business meetings towards a hybrid model, CSA will be organising SICW 2021 as a combination of inter-linked physical and virtual meetings that will allow key leaders from governments, industry, academia and non-government organisations to explore the future of cyberspace cooperation from a broader range of perspectives.

Virtual Roundtable: “Evolving internationally coordinated strategy to detect ransomware attacks as an international diplomatic and enforcement priority”
In September 2020, The Azure Forum brought together experts from across the globe to examine the nature of malicious cyber-enabled state activity in the healthcare sector during the global pandemic and the policy responses open to states to deal with this behaviour. A number of high-profile ransomware incidents have since occurred globally, such as the Colonial Pipeline and Health Service Executive of Ireland attacks, and use of ransomware targeting Microsoft exchange servers. We are thus revisiting these themes and would like to invite you to join a high-level roundtable discussion on “Evolving internationally coordinated strategy to deter ransomware attacks as an international diplomatic and enforcement priority”.
Thursday 30 September 2021 at 13:00-14:30 (Irish Standard Time).

One Conference 2021
The annual international cybersecurity conference "One Conference" will take place this year on Tuesday 28 and Wednesday 29 September 2021 in the Netherlands.
During the conference, national and international experts from the business community, science and government talk about current developments in the field of cyber security. From technical to policy issues, the conference offers a broad range of topic. Moreover, it not only focuses on mere cyber security, but also on the economic opportunities offered by the cyber domain.
The conference is organized in cooperation between the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Climate Policy, the National Cyber Security Centre and the Municipality in The Hague. In alignment with the One Conference, the city aims to stimulate the exchange of cyber security knowledge, ideas and innovations for a more secure future. ECP, Platform for the Information Society offers support in the logistical organization of the conference.
Normally, this is a two-day conference and consists of a plenary programme, various breakout sessions and an Innovation Floor. Technical topics such as malware detection, incident response, law enforcement cases and less technical subjects, such as public-private partnerships or governance, are discussed. Attention is also given to research from industry and academia. Given the uncertainty involved in organizing large events, the One Conference team is keeping all scenarios open as to the format of this year's conference. We are considering a hybrid format that includes online streaming and on-site sessions with a live audience, within all limits of what can be allowed. More information on the format will be announced at a later date.
