Re: More on Cyber War

[Julie Ryan <jjchryan () gwu edu>]

Ben,

You're right, and that's the whole point of the conference.  You should consider coming next year.  I think you'd be 
particularly interested in the discussions on the Laws of Armed Conflict.

In the meantime, conference content is being discussed on linkedin, with a wonderful summary of the Legal and Policy 
track presentations by Eneken Tikk, in the group Cyber Security Forum Initiative (Law and Policy Division).

Also, the conference materials should eventually be made available on the website at 
http://www.ccdcoe.org/conference2010/
