The “data” is often regulated under specific country, but different country has different regulatory systems over different cultural context. New technologies created difficult problems to solve between risks and safety.
> Japan and US government agreed to develop a U.S.-Japan Cloud Computing Working Group, which will convene around fall 2012 after identifying key policy issues based on views expressed by U.S. and Japanese industry. Global and regional IGF activities might be a place to discuss similar issues under a multi-stakeholder and global environment.

> 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.

> 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.

> 5. Child protection (we would like to exchange M4 and M5 due to presenter's 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.
