Evaluating emerging threats in cyberspace and strategies for cyber resilience
We live in the era of internet wherein; every single moment of personal and professional domain is posted online. Every bit of information is automatically becoming a portion of the tapestry of information, linking the tread of your information to another information. Not much in the personal sphere, but in profession domains this are more subject to information theft and system breakdown."
Resilience as defined by oxford dictionary “is the ability of people or things to recover quickly after something unpleasant, such as shock, injury, etc.” and Cyber resilience refers to an entity's ability to continuously deliver the intended outcome, despite cyber-attacks. Resilience to cyber-attacks is essential to IT systems, critical infrastructure, business processes, organizations, societies, and nation-states.” (www,oxfordedictionarylearner.com). Over the Europe and the western countries were experiencing a global cyber threat, when a mass of computer system was hacked by a hacker, risking many citizens financial stability. In 2022, on 25 October European Internet forum (EIF) summoned a conference wherein, they launched the First Internet of Things act, Cyber resilience act, 2022. “ ( Burri zilamm, et. al. 2023).
“The Legislative announced they had launched this act to buy some time to counter the digital threats, especially to economic-actors. The cyber resilience act, covered Cyber information infrastructure protection against the ransomwares in cyber space, through more emphasis on cyber encryption, especially on economic domains around Europe, The cyber law differ from person to person”, ( Wikipedia) “ an Ex-president of American Internet association appreciate the effort, but also believe better effort could be made, something like CIIP doesn’t exist, as infrastructure of internet is quite physically, though information too has its infrastructure, but it’s structureless and completely fluid, lacking a definite pattern, network of routers in LAN network, Information merely travels in packets of data.” (2023).
"The Research scholar consider cyber resilience yet, to be a problem due enormous probability for a ransomware to discover loopholes, internet is by far is not patrolled like the real world. So, for an institution, nation and society can easily be a victim of cyber-attack and cyber war.
Due to similar concerns, Olaolu Kayode-Ajala pens three methods in his research which could prove affective in bolstering cyber resilience.”
Furthermore, a reason to commit crime are food, hunger, and lack of economic resources to deal with the daily life. From the developing countries with high economic gaps and developing nation with lesser population without proper economic resources, limits a nation to develop. Thus, it viably takes more effort for the cyber police to establish law and order.
Well-researched regulatory framework and revision of cyber laws: For a government to cater to the need of the various stakeholder is difficult often, creating conflict, the intensive documentation and documentation, will hinder to use of internet services, as creating similar bureaucratic process for different business and digital product will be impossible, moreover intensive brainstorming that they had to go on the documentation of the user of internet service. “ (2023). Various internet user in a country might not be the citizen and different geographical location and must be based on foreign ties with the foreign countries, thus, making the process extremely complex.
Some of the industrial product and services that might not be traded in some countries and unintended trade might create conflict in the countries., but even the inadequately restrictive frameworks could leave loopholes, and easily be accessed by either minor, unintended user or ransomware risking either the dignity or the financial asset of the citizen of the nation. Thus require a well-researched customized cyber law and regulatory for cyber resilience, to protect the valuable piece of information.
Cyber education: Lat but not the least, the most important cyber education, Many first world country fail to create safer web due to lack of understanding and education of cyber law, Many people fall prey to ransomware , or being shamed on internet due lack of knowledge of the law and right on the internet, thus leaving no mental faculty to process when someone is facing a cybercrime.
Even with better economic resources, many first world countries or developing countries fail to stop the cybercrime. The countries; like America have reported crimes of cybers abuse, form bullying to uploading videos without consent.
There is strong need of cyber literacy all around in the countries., The developing countries have limited access to online resources and database which fosters people’s ignorance against the cyber law, thus despite faster court and better legislation policies people suffer from cyber-bullying, The absence of a well-informed decision making, leaves people to be an easy victim of Ransomware.” (2023). Even not the ransomware, an education related to the cyber behavior must be conducted to educate, people of the right behavior, as they might intentionally commit crime, and such behavior can go under an generalized and normalized behavior, for which a good cyber resilience policy might be difficult, due improper function of cyber laws across the nation or institution.
Cyber resilience is a concern, and will require a constant revision of cyber act, to perfect cyber resilience. For a nation and institution, it is recommend to educate peers about the cyber security and cyber law as per the respective nation they live in, because any increase in ignorance will provided an opportunity to make a digital access to the digital loopholes, a cyber education in school in developing nation is recommended, if the political institution is unstable in the nation or power conflicts or if communities are constantly rioting, better regulation could be made to help control the information in the internet, and nation with new internet resources must bring Knowledge to its youth through the cyber education and internet of thing. (2023) Even better if an introduction is made to cyber security and behavior law, to children in the school, and in the future economic-actor, agency, and institution to maximize data confidentiality within the e economy, and to minimize the crime on the internet.
