U.S., Russia Sign Pact to Foster Cyber Security Communication
The U.S. and Russia have signed a landmark agreement to reduce the risk of cyber conflict through real-time communications about incidents of national security concern, reports The Washington Post.
The pact – the first of its kind – was announced in a statement issued by both countries Monday at the Group of Eight summit in Northern Ireland, and it was cast as part of a broader, bilateral effort to improve cooperation on counterterrorism and weapons of mass destruction.
