Topics
Cybersecurity
Delegates will discuss how to improve and promote cybersecurity measures within countries to combat the growing business of cybercrime, which is responsible for the increasing quantities and severities of cyberattacks on individual citizens and governments.
Piracy
Delegates will discuss the persistent issue of piracy our international waters face. Because waters are international territory, it has been bereft of enforceable laws, allowing pirates to seize hostages and commercial goods throughout the oceans, developing piracy into an industry.
