In written commentaries, Christina and other contributors review the OEWG’s most substantive contributions and shortcomings to global ICT security, outline priorities for future dialogues on responsible state behavior in cyberspace, and discuss the feasibility of consensus on a permanent multilateral mechanism discussing cybersecurity under UN auspices.
