Dave - for IP if you wish



The National Research Council (NRC) is undertaking a project entitled "Deterring Cyberattacks: Informing Strategies and 
Developing Options for U.S. Policy." The project is aimed at fostering a broad, multidisciplinary examination of 
strategies for deterring cyberattacks on the United States and the possible utility of these strategies for the U.S. 
government.  



To stimulate work in this area, the NRC is offering one or more monetary prizes for excellent contributed papers that 
address one or more of the questions of interest found in its call for papers, which can be found at 
http://sites.nationalacademies.org/CSTB/CSTB_056215 <http://sites.nationalacademies.org/CSTB/CSTB_056215> .



Abstracts of less than 500 words are due April 1, 2010.  First drafts are due May 21, 2010, final drafts July 9, 2010.  
For more information, see the call for papers.  



The broad themes of interest include 



A. Theoretical Models for Cyberdeterrence

B. Cyberdeterrence and Declaratory Policy

C. Operational Considerations in Cyberdeterrence

D. Regimes of Reciprocal/Consensual Limitations Regarding Cyberattack 

E. Cyberdeterrence in a Larger Context 

F. The Dynamics of Action/Reaction in Cyber Conflict 

G. Escalation Dynamics of Cyber Conflict



In the call for papers, a number of more specific questions are contained within each theme.  A variety of relevant 
collateral issues are addressed as well.
