Ransomware Everywhere: Advancing Responsible State Behavior in Cyberspace

While the behavior of state actors (and their proxies) in cyberspace is a pressing national security concern, the recent wave of high-profile ransomware attacks serve as a stark reminder of the importance of addressing a wide diversity of actors and the range of relationships they can have with states around the world. 

What role can and/or should international cooperation play in addressing this spectrum of actors? How should the Biden administration respond to the rash of attacks originating in Russia? What form should engagement with Russian President Vladimir Putin take? Where have we made the most progress and what gaps remain?

Questions for the panel can be submitted at the time of RSVP, or to Sophie Goguichvili at Sophie.Goguichvili@wilsoncenter.org or on Twitter at @WilsonSTIP.
