Future Conflict: The International Law of Cyber and Information Convergence

Third Annual in-person symposium on Cyber & International Law

September 23听- 25, 2024

For some time now, the focus of discussions about international law鈥檚 role in regulating cyberspace has been almost exclusively on cyber effects鈥攖hat is, operations targeting the functionality of information and communications technologies (ICT) or the confidentiality, availability or integrity of the data and information resident thereon. 听But as recent history demonstrates, the advent of cyberspace has also enabled and evolved the realm of information conflict, with an attendant and inevitable convergence of cyber and information operations. 听Whereas some states have long approached cyberspace through the broader lens of 鈥渋nformation confrontation,鈥 others are playing catch up to the threats posed by 鈥渃yber-enabled information operations鈥 and assessing whether doctrinal barriers between cyber and information operations are artificial and should come down. 听The international law implications of this trend toward convergence are profound, implicating critical questions across the spectrum of war and peace, and hence the law of state responsibility, international human rights and humanitarian law. 听

The Tech, Law, & Security Program (TLS) is excited to once again host our annual symposium at the 小蓝视频 Washington College of Law on September 23-25, 2024.
