THE ASSOCIATED CHAMBERS OF COMMERCE AND INDUSTRY OF INDIA

Cyber Era: Securing the Future
The lack of a national-level doctrine has
created an environment where we are
entirely reactive in our cyber posture.
Indeed, battlefield transcends physical
borders and boundaries. The power of a
nation-state is not required to inflict
w i d e s p re a d d a m a g e t o c r i t i c a l
infrastructure systems; a single malicious
actor can wreak havoc. The starkest
difference, however, is that today both
the private sector and individual citizens
have unprecedented access to a myriad
of infrastructure systems that can
provide entry into sensitive systems – yet
they are largely unaware of, and
unaccountable for, their responsibilities
in defending them.
As cyber networks rapidly transition from
a mere utility to the undercurrent of our
entire societal infrastructure, this reliance
becomes a vulnerability. The modern
Cyber Era demands a national-level
doctrine that can be adopted by
government agencies, armed forces,
private sector organizations and individual
citizens alike to establish a collective sense
of purpose for our Cyber Security.
The ASSOCHAM is providing a forum to
bring industry leaders, policymakers and
academia together with the scientists
and practitioners that intimately
understand cyber technology to
collaborate and begin a debate about the
complex issues.
The time has come when we should
consider not only the military impact of
the new cyber world, but also what role
cyber defense will hold in shaping the
future of our country's economy,
education, foreign affairs policies and
critical infrastructure initiatives. Only
then can our government, industry, and
private citizens align under common goal
to shape a safe and prosperous future.

“As President, I’ll make cyber security the top priority that it should
be in the 21st century. I’ll declare our cyber-infrastructure a strategic
asset, and appoint a National Cyber Advisor who will report directly
to me. We’ll coordinate efforts across the federal government,
implement a truly national cyber-security policy, and tighten
standards to secure information – from the networks that power the
federal government, to the networks that you use in your personal
lives.”
Mr. Barack Obama
President, USA
"Large-scale computer attacks on our critical infrastructure and
economy can have potentially devastating results... To this end, we
need to build partnerships between government, academia and the
private sector."
Mr. Manmohan Singh
Prime Minister of India
"The threat in terms of cybersecurity comes from all sorts of different
places and organisations – a lot of it is criminal. What the British
have done is [bring] together a strategy to help protect key
industries, key infrastructure, key capabilities in terms of
cybersecurity and that is work we want to share with others."
Mr. David Cameron
Prime Minister, United Kingdom
"No nation can fight cybercrime or secure its cyberspace in isolation.
Increased and focused cooperation among key players,
governments, industry and international bodies, is essential to
create a secure cyber space."
Mr. Kapil Sibal
Minister for Communications & IT and
Minister for Law & Justice, Government of India
“There is a lot of use of terms such as 'cyber attack' and 'cyber-
warfare', but I think the stress should rather be on safety for general
and business users of the internet. Whilst security has a role to play,
some of the safety measures also require the co-operation and
understanding of users.”
Mr. Vinton G. Cerf
“Father of Internet”
“The enormous potential for damage has made cyber security a
major concern. There is no question that both the government and
private sector need each other. The unique nature of this
collaboration is because of the unique nature of the domain, and we
need to develop the habit of working together that hasn’t existed in
the past.”
Mr. Shivshankar Menon
National Security Advisor, India
