Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport

Cybersecurity and Hybrid Threats Following the Russian Invasion of Ukraine: Discussion

Dr. Michael Scott:

It would be great if something could be done in that regard and a rules-based system could be introduced in cyberspace, in order that countries could be held to account and treaties could be signed. That is the way things could go. As I pointed out, Ireland sits on the UN Security Council and, therefore, is in a position to introduce such an idea, which would be good. At the moment, however, there is nothing there. It is the Wild West, basically.
