US Sits Down with ‘The Bear’ to Discuss Cybersecurity
Starting yesterday and continuing to May 14, representatives from the United States and Russia will meet to discuss information and communication technology.
The U.S.-Russia Information and Communication Technology (ICT) Roundtable, which is the first since 2004, will look to open “a dialogue on a range of topics including broadband, internet governance, cybersecurity, spectrum management, the analog to digital TV transition and coordination of positions for upcoming meetings at the International Telecommunication Union,” according to the State Department.
The inter-agency task force will be led by Ambassador Philip Verveer, U.S. Coordinator for International Communications and Information Policy, and will include representatives of the State Department, the National Telecommunications Information Administration (NTIA) and the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). It will also include bi-lateral discussions with the Russian Ministry of Communications in Moscow.
