2009 CCDCOE .:. Conference on Cyber Warfare 9-11



17 August 2009

Cyber Security Legal Aspects
Training Day Details
Training objectives
“Legal Aspects of Cyber Defence” is a one-day seminar held prior to the “Cyber Conflict Legal & Policy Conference” in order to offer a compact introduction to issues such as cyber incidents, cyber crime and cyber warfare. The training aims to complement the debate on a multidisciplinary approach to cyber conflict management by proposing lectures of international professionals addressing various fundamental interrelated legal aspects of cyber security and cyber defence. The lectures and following discussions serve as both an informative presentation of the growingly complex legal issues of cyber defence for independent audience and a perfect kick-off for the conference attendees.   
Training audience
The training program is designed to precede the Cyber Conflict Legal & Policy Conference and thus targeted to professionals interested in IT law, cyber security and cyber defence. The training is also open to independent audience not taking part of the conference.

Press announcement of the CCD COE - 09 September, 2009
President of Estonia opened International Cyber Conflict Legal and Policy Conference
Cooperative Cyber Defence Centre of Excellence in cooperation with George Mason University opened today the International Cyber Conflict Policy and Legal Conference in Tallinn, Swissotel. The opening conference of the series brings together stakeholders from different fields to discuss legal and policy issues concerning cyber defence.
The conference was opened by the President of the Republic of Estonia Mr Toomas Hendrik Ilves, who stressed that the development of an effective response capability against cyber disruptions—whether intentionally man-made or not— requires a major cooperative effort both within and across countries: it demands a broad participation of domestic actors, private and public, as well as concerted action by states, internationally and regionally.
"During the conference we are making our way to tackle the bottlenecks in cyber conflict legal and policy areas. Even if some means to secure the cyber domain are technologically feasable, we are limited by laws and policies," said the Director of the CCD COE Col Ilmar Tamm. "It is a question of balancing between the open environment and security we need to address sooner or later," added Tamm
CCD COE is an International Military Organisation (IMO), fully accredited by NATO’s North Atlantic Council on the 28th of October, 2008.  CCD COE is located in Tallinn, Estonia on the premises of Estonian Signals Battalion.

Press announcement of the CCD COE - 17 June, 2009
Minister Aaviksoo opened Conference on Cyber Warfare
Minister of Defence of Estonia Mr Jaak Aaviksoo made the opening remarks at the Conference on Cyber Warfare organised by the Cooperative Cyber Defence Centre of Excellence and International Centre for Defence Studies. The Conference takes place for the first time and brings together experts from all over the world to Tallinn, Estonian National Opera.
"A year has passed since the centre of excellence here in Tallinn has started functioning and this conference is its first, publicly visible product. I sincerely hope that this becomes a positive tradition," said Mr Jaak Aaviksoo. "As a member of NATO, now for more than 5 years, Estonia has looked for issues and spheres of mutual concern, where we could contribute most influentially into our collective defence. Our own dependence on ICT solutions has made us vulnerable and logically leading us into building up a robust defense. This has enabled us to get some  valuable experience, hopefully, which will be found useful by other alliance members," added the Minister of Defence of Estonia.
"Current conference brings added value, because we're not analysing cyber defence as such, but we're concentrating on the influences it might have on the national security," stated the main organiser of the event Mr Kenneth Geers. "We are discussing both the strategic and tactical sides of the growing threat at this day and age," said Geers.
"Conference on Cyber Warfare is an important initiative from the centre's side, deriving from the discussions on the definitions of cyber warfare and from the analysis on everyday incidents, it is clear that the enhancement of cyber defence capabilities has to go hand in hand with cyber attacks evolvement," addad the Director of the CCD COE Col Lt Ilmar Tamm.
CCD COE is an International Military Organisation (IMO), fully accredited by NATO’s North Atlantic Council on the 28th of October, 2008.  CCD COE is located in Tallinn, Estonia on the premises of Estonian Signals Battalion.
