Full textAbstract:
Cybersecurity is a critical issue that must be prioritized not just by enterprises of all kinds, but also by national security. To safeguard an organization’s cyberenvironments, information, and communication technologies, many enterprises are investing substantially in cybersecurity these days. One part of the cyberdefense mechanism is building an enterprises’ security policies library, for consistent implementation of security controls. Significant and common cybersecurity policies of various enterprises are compared and explored in this study to provide robust and comprehensive cybersecurity knowledge that can be used in various enterprises. Several significant common security policies were identified and discussed in this comprehensive study. This study identified 10 common cybersecurity policy aspects in five enterprises: healthcare, finance, education, aviation, and e-commerce. We aimed to build a strong infrastructure in each business, and investigate the security laws and policies that apply to all businesses in each sector. Furthermore, the findings of this study reveal that the importance of cybersecurity requirements differ across multiple organizations. The choice and applicability of cybersecurity policies are determined by the type of information under control and the security requirements of organizations in relation to these policies.

Full textAbstract:
Cybersecurity is a crucial concern for local governments as they serve as the primary interface between public and government services, managing sensitive data and critical infrastructure. While technical safeguards are integral to cybersecurity, the role of a well-structured policy is equally important as it provides structured guidance to translate technical requirements into actionable protocols. This study reviews local governments’ cybersecurity policies to provide a comprehensive assessment of how these policies align with the National Institute of Standards and Technology’s Cybersecurity Framework 2.0, which is a widely adopted and commonly used cybersecurity assessment framework. This review offers local governments a mirror to reflect on their cybersecurity stance, identifying potential vulnerabilities and areas needing urgent attention. This study further extends the development of a cybersecurity policy framework, which local governments can use as a strategic tool. It provides valuable information on crucial cybersecurity elements that local governments must incorporate into their policies to protect confidential data and critical infrastructure.

Full textAbstract:
Although cybersecurity is an important and complex issue that should be addressed by all government levels, so far little research has been devoted to cybersecurity at the local level. Existing literature lacks information on whether municipalities have implemented cybersecurity policies, if such policies are applied in practice and what they encompass. A CAWI method was used to collect the required data. The results indicate that while most municipalities have a document defining their security policy, they do not always apply it in practice. There is still little awareness regarding countering cyber-attacks. Therefore, more emphasis should be placed on such issues as: integrating cybersecurity policies into local government management, the rising threat of cyber-attacks, consultations with security auditors, and cybersecurity management training. Based on all Polish municipalities, the research described in this paper partly fills the identified gap.

Full textAbstract:
In today’s rapidly digitalizing world, cybersecurity requires the protection of information and communication technologies as well as the infrastructure of countries. In this framework, some countries consider cyber sovereignty to be connected with cybersecurity as an approach that discloses the control and authority of states over their digital infrastructures. This study analyzes the cybersecurity policies and understanding of cyber sovereignty in China. In doing so, the possibility of theorizing dominance in cyberspace is discussed. In this context, the main purpose of this study is to examine the theoretical dimensions of cybersecurity and cyber sovereignty concepts and to analyze China’s cybersecurity policies and cyber sovereignty approach. Cyberspace represents a new field of dominance in international relations. Rather than providing a definitive answer to whether cyber sovereignty is possible under international law, the focus should be on how cyber sovereignty can play a role in international power struggles and shape cybersecurity policies. In this context, the study’s methodology consists of a brief introduction to cybersecurity, followed by an analysis of the research question of whether cyberspace dominance is possible and the concept of cyber sovereignty. Within the scope of the theoretical framework, a literature review of the relevant concepts was conducted, and China’s cybersecurity policies and cyber sovereignty approach were analyzed as a case study. The documents, sources, and data discussed throughout the study demonstrate China’s understanding of cyber sovereignty and how it is shaped on international platforms. The study concludes that if China sees cyberspace sovereignty as the key to becoming a global power in the international system, it must integrate all factors, including military, political, and economic factors, besides cybersecurity.

Full textAbstract:
Today, ensuring security in cyberspace is a top priority of national security policy for most states. States’ approaches to cybersecurity can be divided into two categories: those that regard cybersecurity as a civilian task; and those that involve their militaries in creating or implementing cybersecurity policies. Those states that have incorporated cyberwarfare into their military planning and organization perceive cyberattacks as a threat to their national security, while states that charge their civilian agencies with domestic cybersecurity missions classify cyber intrusions as security risks for only particular sectors. Adopting the framework of securitization theory, this article theorizes both civil and military approaches to cybersecurity and threat perceptions and their sources. The theoretical framework is then applied to a study of the cybersecurity policies of Central European countries and the Baltic States.

Full textAbstract:
Information security is a critical issue in today’s world, as the constant threat of cyber-attacks and breaches continues to pose a serious threat to individuals, businesses and governments. To address this issue, it is necessary to evaluate the existing security measures and their effectiveness in protecting against cyber threats, as well as the decisionmaking processes that drive information security policy at the national and international levels. The classification of existing security measures and decision-making actors is an essential step in identifying areas of weakness and improving security policies. By taking a comprehensive approach to the subject, this research has provided insight into different levels of policy development and implementation, as well as the key actors involved at each stage. The review, classification and analysis of existing cybersecurity ratings have also contributed to the identification of areas for improvement. Despite the lack of transparency in the methodology and robustness issues of most ratings, this work has provided some important insights into the overall effectiveness of different cybersecurity and information security policies. Finally, the finding that gaps and theoretical-methodological inconsistencies in the field of national information and cybersecurity research can be explained by the opaque and non-objective methodology used to evaluate the effectiveness of policies is crucial. It shows that there is a need for more transparent and objective methodologies that can accurately evaluate cybersecurity policies at the national and international levels, taking into account the unique challenges and contexts within which they operate.

The Internet and its transformative technologies have become essential to both emerging and established businesses. While organisations benefit from connectivity, they are also increasingly vulnerable to cyber-attacks, underscoring the need for robust monitoring systems and comprehensive cybersecurity policies. In Namibia, many organisations have cybersecurity policies, yet employees are often unaware of existence of such policies. This study aimed to examine the complexities of cybersecurity policies within Namibian organisations and provide a tailored roadmap for developing, implementing, and ensuring compliance with these policies to suit the unique landscape of Namibian businesses. Using a qualitative approach guided by design science research, data was collected from 21 participants, including Information Technology (IT) and security managers as well as employees from five organisations across various sectors in the country. The findings indicated that Namibian organisations are commitment to cybersecurity through comprehensive policies aligned with international standards. However, organisations face impediments that underscore the need for targeted strategies to overcome barriers to policy enforcement. From these finding a framework was designed with strategies and action plans and evaluated by industry experts. The CSPIC framework was considered Good (rating 2) in most areas by the experts. Gaps in existing frameworks such as usability, adoptability, and budget prioritization were addressed by the proposed CSPIC framework. The Cybersecurity Policy Implementation and Compliance (CSPIC) framework's uniqueness lies in its local adaptability, actionable strategies, and emphasis on leadership and employee engagement.

Abstract The Visegrad Group is the most dynamic transnational group in the Central and Eastern European region, connecting the Czech Republic, Poland, Slovakia and Hungary. Together these countries have established a useful framework for engaging with and coordinating policy at a regional level. At the same time, they are implementing EU programmes by creating cooperating networks with neighbouring countries based on their common security needs and strategic culture. This article focuses on the cybersecurity policies of the Visegrad Group countries. My analysis aims to reveal similarities and differences among these states that may be crucial for their future cooperation on a joint Central and Eastern European cybersecurity strategy. A cybersecurity strategy is a basic document created in a governmental context that reflects the interests and security rules at work in cyberspace. This document establishes the framework for future legislation, policies/standards, guidelines and other security- and cybersecurity‑related recommendations. This study is also an attempt to assess the development of cybersecurity policies; as such, it provides an opportunity to hypothesise about the future of cybertechnology in the Visegrad Group region.

The technological leap is challenging interoperable government ideas and policies for cybersecurity. Online platforms, telecommunications networks require policies that track their changes to prevent negative computer phenomena. Some countries see the opportunity for cooperation and partnership to increase cybersecurity, while other need to prepare strategic frameworks alone to face cyber warfare. Good European practices serve as a model for the Western Balkan states, guiding them towards proper legal regulation and internal legal alignment with the laws of the European Union. The Western Balkans region faces an intensification of cases showing weak cybersecurity strategies and intractable barriers to preventing cyber warfare. Cybersecurity poses not only a challenge for the Western Balkans but also a global challenge, impacting the capacity and well-thought-out government policies of the Western Balkan countries, which are also transitional countries. Through this study, the cyber landscape in which different actors navigate will be explored.

Abstract With increasing technical safeguards to protect information systems, Human error continues to be a critical factor contributing to the rise in information systems attacks and data breaches. Inadequate or unenforceable Cybersecurity policies or training can open doors for adversaries to circumvent technical safeguards and paint a picture of a growing cybersecurity problem. The problem investigated in this work assesses if organizations adequately invest in resources to provide industry-aligned cybersecurity education, training, and awareness that can minimize human error leading to cyber-attacks. This work aims to investigate breaches attributed to human errors and compare cybersecurity policies, education, training, and awareness programs in three different schools in New York State. The work focused on user awareness and vulnerable behaviours, effective training for users, and investigating start-of-the-art approaches to gauge or evaluate the organization’s cybersecurity stance when compared to industry frameworks like the NIST framework. A Triangulation research approach including quantitative, qualitative, and descriptive methods are adopted for this work. Instruments for data collection include a survey, literature review, qualitative analysis to identify research gaps, and assessments of the questionnaires. This work demonstrates that formulated enforced cybersecurity policies coupled with targeted security education, training, and awareness are instrumental to decreasing user errors, thereby reducing the probability of a cyber-attack.

Full textAbstract:
This research uses quantitative data analysis and a qualitative exploratory method to examine how organisations embrace innovative cybersecurity solutions. The study looks at organisational policies, governance frameworks, strategic approaches, and cultural aspects that affect technology adoption using a stratified random sample technique. Structured questionnaires & feedback forms provided the data, which were then analysed using AMOS and SPSS statistical software with an emphasis on structural equation modelling (SEM) to investigate correlations between variables. A supportive organisational culture positively correlates with technology adoption (χ² = 41.179, df = 31, p < 0.001, CMIN/DF = 1.328, RMSEA = 0.034), and organisations with a proactive strategic approach were more successful in implementing cybersecurity technologies (χ² = 50.400, df = 26, p < 0.001, CMIN/DF = 1.938, RMSEA = 0.058). The research also finds that while comprehensive policies influence adoption via efficient training programs, employee involvement completely mediates the association between organisational culture and technology adoption. These findings demonstrate how crucial culture, employee participation, strategic planning, and training are to the successful integration of cybersecurity technology.

Full textAbstract:
Cybercrime requires a multidimensional approach addressing technical, organisational, and human factors to prevent cyber-attacks. This systematic review highlights the significance of a strong cybersecurity culture in mitigating the risks of cyberattacks and enhancing an organisation's resilience. Implementing training and awareness programmes, establishing leadership support and accountability mechanisms, and fostering employee engagement are strategies for promoting a strong cybersecurity culture. However, fostering a robust culture of cybersecurity can be challenging and requires the participation of various stakeholders. Training and awareness programmes can significantly improve employee cybersecurity knowledge and behaviour, and leadership support is essential for establishing a cybersecurity culture. It is possible to enforce employee compliance with cybersecurity policies and procedures through accountability mechanisms, such as consequences for noncompliance and periodic security audits. Involving employees in the creation of cybersecurity policies and procedures, as well as recognising and rewarding responsible behaviour, can increase employee engagement and investment in cybersecurity. Although technical measures such as firewalls and encryption are essential for defending against cyber-attacks, a strong cybersecurity culture is necessary to mitigate cybercrime risks and enhance an organisation's resilience. Future research should identify and evaluate effective strategies for cultivating a robust cybersecurity culture in the context of preventing cybercrime. Cybersecurity should be a top priority for businesses and individuals, who must take preventative measures against cyber-attacks. By fostering a robust culture of cybersecurity, businesses can increase their resilience and reduce the risks of cybercrime.

Full textAbstract:
Over the last decades cybersecurity has become a cornerstone of European digital development. Alongside with the diffusion of information and communication technologies and the deepening (as well as widening) of the European Union, the initial narrow and sectoral data security policies have expanded into a comprehensive cybersecurity framework addressing issues from resilient infrastructure and technological sovereignty, through tackling cybercrime, to cyber defence capabilities and responsible state behaviour in cyberspace. In this complex web of interrelated policies a relative newcomer at the European Union (EU) level is cyber diplomacy. Sometimes also called public diplomacy 2.0, it factors into the cross-border connectivity of cyberspace and reflects a shift in international relations where the lines between external and internal policies, military and civilian domains are blurred. However, the term cyber diplomacy is fluid and it is not well understood which topics should be under its “umbrella”, in particular in relation to cybersecurity, where it seems to be linked the most. This article aims to map existing and proposed instruments that make up the EU’s arsenal in this broad context to answer the following questions: what is cyber diplomacy and how is it related to the EU cybersecurity? Is cyber diplomacy in the EU becoming something in its own right as a distinct set of tools to secure the EU policy objectives?

Discussions on the cybersecurity domain touch on some principles undergoing accelerated transformation, both from state renewal and business arena. This transformation points to a significant movement in the communication channels which are little subject to external control since the very nature of these relations escapes the institutional ingredients available from states and international regimes. If the way interactions take place inhibits surveillance, ties' intensification presents a moral regulatory demand that manifests itself as a relevant component of the global system's stability. The European Union launched in Dec 2020 its new EU Cybersecurity Strategy (1), and the challenges it is posed to deal with are only achievable through overlapping policies with a comprehensive and across borders feasible framework.

Full textAbstract:
The water and wastewater sector is an important lifeline upon which other economic sectors depend. Securing the sector’s critical infrastructure is therefore important for any country’s economy. Like many other nations, South Africa has an overarching national cybersecurity strategy aimed at addressing cyber terrorism, cybercriminal activities, cyber vandalism, and cyber sabotage. The aim of this study is to contextualise the water and wastewater sector’s cybersecurity responsibilities within the national cybersecurity legislative and policy environment. This is achieved by conducting a detailed analysis of the international, national and sector cybersecurity stakeholders; legislation and policies; and challenges pertaining to the protection of the water and wastewater sector. The study found some concerning challenges and improvement gaps regarding the complex manner in which the national government is implementing the cybersecurity strategy. The study also found that, along with the National Cybersecurity Policy Framework (the national cybersecurity strategy of South Africa), the Electronic Communications and Transactions Act, Critical Infrastructure Protection Act, and other supporting legislation and policies make provision for the water and wastewater sector’s computer security incidents response team to be established without the need to propose any new laws or amend existing ones. This is conducive for the immediate development of the sector-specific cybersecurity governance framework and resilience strategy to protect the water and wastewater assets.

Full textAbstract:
In an increasingly complex threat landscape, many nations struggle with developing and implementing effective cybersecurity policies for cyberspace governance at a national and international level. Balancing between the demands for establishing national sovereignty and strengthening international collaboration in cyberspace have become a problematic assignment. Collaborating with nations supporting extensively dissimilar ideologies and cybersecurity policies is controversial. Yet, it is almost impossible for a single country to achieve 'self-sufficiency' in cyberspace. Thus, in order to remain competitive, protected, and resilient one must either join or strengthen a developing techno-economic coalition with similar national cybersecurity policies and/or ideological framework. Consequently, this paper argues that techno-economic coalitions serve as an emerging issue or trend for strategic foresight in cyberspace governance in the future. This paper discusses the potential formation of techno-economic coalitions and shows how 'backcasting' can be used in strategic foresight. In this paper, 'backcasting' is not used as a method for creating a traditional strategic map to a future goal, but as a framework for determining what should have happened in order for the techno-economic coalitions to emerge in future cyberspace, i.e. for finding issues or trends that should be followed in strategic foresight today. Firstly, cyberspace governance in relation to national cybersecurity policies is contextualised. Secondly, the concept of techno-economic coalition is defined and the potential emerging techno-economic coalitions are explicated. Thirdly, 'backcasting' as a method for strategic foresight is described. Fourthly, the results of a 'backcasting' experiment in a strategic foresight workshop are presented. And finally, the future formation and role of techno-economic coalitions in cyberspace governance and in cyber defence both at a national and international level are discussed. The role of techno-economic coalitions in future cyberspace governance should be understood and considered today when developing strategic plans and implementing national and international cybersecurity policies.
