Introduction
ITU-T Telecommunication Standardization Advisory Group (TSAG) agreed at its November 2003 meeting
to develop a high-level Cybersecurity Symposium, to be held prior to the World Telecommunication
Standardization Assembly (WTSA-04). The term "Cybersecurity" is shorthand to refer to the area of
security of networked information systems, encompassing the security of electronic interchanges and
the underlying telecommunications infrastructure. >> more...
Symposium objectives
In the context of WTSA-04 and of the mandate and role of the ITU, the objectives of the Cybersecurity
Symposium were:
- To act as an information sharing and networking event
- To raise awareness of the critical nature of the issues involved,
the global nature of the problems and need for international cooperation
- To highlight the need for standards development in the field
Topics covered at The Cybersecurity Symposium included network architecture,
communication protocols, physical transmission media, and telecommunication network
infrastructure including design, deployment and maintenance. The event also
included sessions on telecommunication policy, practices, regulation, economics, user
responsibilities, and the legal framework in which telecommunications services operate.
