More than 50 States, 90 NGOs and academia and 130 corporations and groups have endorsed the Paris Call for Trust and Security in Cyberspace. The Call was launched by French President Macron on 12 November.
Its supporters commit to work together, inter alia, to strengthen prevention of and resilience against malicious online activity, to prevent interference in elections, protect the accessibility and integrity of the Internet, to clamp down on online mercenary activities and offensive action by non-state actors and to strengthen relevant international standards.
States and organisations endorsing the call “… recognize that the threat of cyber criminality requires more effort to improve the security of the products we use, to strengthen our defenses against criminals and to promote cooperation among all stakeholders, within and across national borders, and that the Budapest Convention on Cybercrime is a key tool in this regard.”
