>> Description :
>> 
>> 
>> As the issue of May 2012 of “Vanity Fair”, the title is “World War 3.0”. In

>> As the Internet created, it developed to a cyberspace to connect and

>> more than a space, Internet is “a living place, a society” where we live
>> with, to talk, to share, to show our emotions, many others,... IT IS THE
>> PLACE WE ALL LIVE WITH. Every single person on the space should (or might)
>> have kind of belief – “A free, open space” or “A connected space” (if some
>> of you don’t like the words as “free”, “open”). As the article said, “The
>> system is now approaching a state of crisis on four main fronts” –
>> “Sovereignty”, “Piracy and Intellectual Property”, “Privacy”, and
>> “Security”, so in this session, we like to invite people to discuss how we
>> can face the challenge not destroy “the space”? Is there a chance to keep “a
>> space” not to be “fragments” as many people worry about (In the history, we
>> saw many societies broke in pieces)? We will try to discuss these issues in
>> these four dimensions. And what is the “core” to maintain “a single space”.
>> 
>> 
>> Can you update the agenda for this topic?

>> 
>> 1. Cloud computing

>> 
>> 2. Cyber Security (no room allocation yet)
>> Topic:  Cyber Security Challenges and Solutions for Asia
>> 
>> Moderator:  Professor Jim Foster, Graduate School of Media and Governance,
>> Keio University
>> Proposed Panelists :all presenters under coordination (must not put name on
>> the web site at this moment)
>> Jim Arrington, Vice President, Boeing Japan
>> Mark Staples, Country Manager, Lockheed Martin Japan
>> Masakazu Takahashi, Chief Security Officer, Microsoft Japan
>> Jun Takei, Global Public Policy Director, Intel Japan
>> Jason Nye, Director of Research, Avascent International
>> 
>> Overview and Objectives
>> The unprecedented expansion of cyberspace has brought growth and prosperity
>> to the global economy.  The annual global economic benefits of the
>> commercial Internet come to over 1.4 trillion dollars.  However, the growth
>> of cyberspace has also presented unfriendly governments and criminal
>> elements with new tools and opportunities for threatening security.
>> Cyberspace will continue to advance if interoperability, openness,
>> stability, and risk-based security measures guide its development.  But this
>> requires a policy environment that can assure security while maintaining the
>> overall economic benefits of cyberspace.
>> The panel will draw on experts from the ICT and defense industries, academia
>> and the consulting field to address and discuss the following issues:
>> The private sector owns and operates most of cyberspace.  Industry is
>> already working together in a variety of ways to protect cyberspace.  For
>> example, in the US, companies are working closely with the US Department of
>> Homeland Security to protect critical infrastructure.  They are also
>> cooperating with the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST)
>> to provide input into NIST security standards and guidelines for
>> non-classified computers systems.  What should Asian governments be doing to
>> strengthen cooperation with and among industry in the region on cyber
>> security concerns?
>> Government policies on cyber security should be consistent with global
>> standards and best practices.  Effective security measures need to be
>> deployed across the entire global digital infrastructure.  This improves
>> interoperability, uses available resources efficiently and assures
>> compliance with WTO rules against discrimination in procurement.  US firms
>> are currently working with the US Department of Defense through the Trusted
>> Technology Forum to support global industry-led standards.   How can Asian
>> governments develop a similar process in the region?
>> Cyberspace technologies change constantly and devices connecting to
>> cyberspace are continuously upgraded and updated.  This requires a layered
>> approach to information security where measures are updated by security
>> experts around the globe on a real-time basis as threats evolve.  It also
>> requires a major financial commitment from industry and government.  The top
>> ICT companies in the US currently spend about 30 billion dollars annually on
>> research and development related to cyber security.  What level of
>> commitment are Asian nations ready to make to share information on the cyber
>> threat?
>> No sector of the economy can be 100 percent secure.  Asian governments and
>> industry must work together to identify, assess and manage risk.  Cyber
>> security should be a part of an overall risk management framework,
>> incorporating technology, people and processes.  Major US ICT companies
>> build risk management into their ongoing daily operations through legal and
>> contractual agreements, cyber security operational controls, adherence to
>> global risk management standards and many other practices.  How can Asian
>> governments and industry build risk management into their approaches on
>> cyber security?
>> Cyber security stakeholders are often unaware of the range of tools
>> available to them to do so, such as risk management models, training, and
>> globally accepted standards and guidelines.  Strengthening the base of
>> knowledge in Asian countries about cyber security threats is critical to
>> improving cyber security.  US firms are currently working through the
>> National Cyber Security Alliance to expand cyber security education and
>> awareness among industry and individual citizens.  What more can be done to
>> build greater awareness about the cyber security threat and means to deal
>> with it in Asia?
>> Cyberspace with its global connectivity poses considerable challenges to
>> those charged with protecting it.  However, cyber threats fundamentally are
>> not different from the threats found in the off-line world. In the US, both
>> traditional government agencies and new organizations are responding to the
>> threat.  The FBI and Secret Service are tasked with protecting critical
>> infrastructure; the US Customs investigates threats to intellectual
>> property, money laundering and identity; and the FTC.  What frameworks are
>> available in Asia; what additional resources are needed?
>> 
>> 3. New topic-1 (possibly  B2: 11:30-13:00 on 19th)
>> Topic: The evolving Internet ecosystem:  A two-sided market?
>> 
>> There’s been increased interest in the functioning of “two-sided” markets
>> online in the US and Europe, but it has yet to become an issue in APAC.
>> Economists globally have been increasingly interested in recent years in
>> “two-sided markets,” cases where economic platforms having two distinct user
>> groups that provide each other with network benefits. Sufficient
>> subscription from both sides of the market ensure the combined network
>> effects make for a sustainable market.  Free-to-air broadcast television is
>> often given as one example, where the television network intermediates
>> between advertisers and viewers; credit card systems are another,
>> intermediating between merchants and consumers. The flow of payments in
>> these two-sided markets can sometimes be quite different from those in
>> conventional markets, as a means of achieving the levels of participation in
>> the market.  This workshop will consider:
>> 
>> •    Should the Internet ecosystem be viewed as a form of two-sided market,
>> with network operators / ISPs collectively intermediating between content
>> providers and consumers?
>> •    In what ways does the Internet differ from other two-sided platforms?
>> In what ways is it similar?
>> •    How might a change in the level of any of these payments alter levels
>> of participation?
>> •    What economic consequences might flow from changes in the level of
>> payments and participation in the market? What social consequences might
>> follow (for example, as regards innovation or free speech)?
>> 
>> A diverse international panel of stakeholders will consider these issues
>> from a wide range of perspectives.
>> 
>> Names and affiliations of possible panelists:
>> all presenters under coordination (must not put name on the web site at this
>> moment)
>> •    Mr Fouad Bajwa, ISOC Pakistan
>> •    Pablo Hinojosa, APNIC

>> 
>> 4. WCIT/IPR
>> The Future of Internet Governance and the Internet in Asia Pacific:
>> 
>> Description of the proposed workshop:
>> The Internet is a vital strategic communications infrastructure for the Asia
>> Pacific region, and so the future evolution of the Internet is a hugely
>> important policy issue for individuals, business and government alike across
>> the region. The region is the most  diverse and dynamic in the world and the
>> formulation of a unified and coherent regional view on such an important
>> policy issue is very challenging.  With internet governance becoming
>> increasingly important, efforts are underway by some countries in Asia
>> Pacific and elsewhere to change the nature of internet governance; moving
>> from a relatively open multi-stakeholder model to a more closed, government
>> led system of governance. What is the best evolution Internet governance
>> path for Internet users of Asia Pacific to follow?  This workshop will
>> discuss the competing paths currently under discussion and seek to offer
>> delegates a comprehensive understanding of the issues.

>> availability)
>> topic: Protection of Children from Crimes on the Internet
>>   There has been extensive amount of activities in Japan to protect children
>> from harmful actions on the Internet.  The study to protect children from
>> getting their pictures circulated in an uncontrollable manner has resulted
>> in the Internet Content Safety Association and its operation that cooperates
>> with ISPs to filter child pornography.  An activity to mainly protect
>> children from downloading harmful content from the Internet to their mobile
>> terminals was studied mainly by Anshin Netzukuri Council.  All of the work
>> was carefully done by getting support from various communities and
>> organizations.  This session will have presentation from the people involved
>> in these activities and the panel will discuss various issues related to
>> child protection.
