TALLINN, May 30 (Xinhua) -- A workshops day of the ninth International Conference on Cyber Conflict took place here on Tuesday to focus on the "core" aspects of cyber security.
Starting from Wednesday, the three-day conference will cover issues ranging from international cooperation and conflict in cyberspace to technical challenges and requirements, legal frameworks, regulations and standards under the topic Defending the Core, the Tallinn-based organiser NATO Cooperative Cyber Defence Centre of Excellence (NATO CCD COE) said in a press release.
Each year, over 500 decision-makers and experts from government, academia and industry from all over the world approach the conference's key themes from legal, technology and strategy perspectives, often in an interdisciplinary manner, it added.
