ASEAN's ROLE IN CYBERSECURITY MAINTENANCE AND SECURITY STRATEGY THROUGH AN INTERNATIONAL SECURITY APPROACH

Abstract

The development of information and communication technology allows easier interactions regardless of time, space, and distance. The borderless cyberspace and option to be anonymous are factors that can increase the criminal rates through cyberspace. Therefore, laws, regulations and international cooperation among nations need to be established. ASEAN is the forum of regional organizations that has successfully made the efforts to encourage cybersecurity enhancement through various programs. Stronger cooperation among the member nations will further strengthen cybersecurity in the region to maintain the safety and security of the nations.
