Towards international coherence of cybersecurity regulations

Oecd

No 384, OECD Digital Economy Papers from OECD Publishing

Abstract: This policy paper provides an overview of the growing fragmentation of cybersecurity regulations across jurisdictions. It examines the main factors driving this fragmentation and outlines its consequences for both governments and businesses, including higher compliance costs, resource diversion from core cybersecurity functions and challenges to effective international co-operation. The paper also maps existing initiatives aimed at promoting greater regulatory coherence at domestic, regional, and international levels. By bringing these elements together, it seeks to support a shared understanding of the current cybersecurity regulatory landscape and mapping out next steps to foster greater coherence through dialogue among policymakers, regulators, and businesses and strengthening the evidence base.
