Cybersecurity Politics and Policies: Actors, Strategies and Challenges
Francesco Amoretti, Simone Busetti, Maria Stella Righettini & Giancarlo Vecchi
Abstract
This introduction highlights the reasons and opportunities why a policy approach to the study of cybersecurity is appropriate and summarises the contributions in the special issue. The common thread linking all the articles is the institutionalisation processes of cybersecurity policy, a perspective which makes it possible to analyse actors, values, activities, national and supranational trajctories, and connects the interventions with other policy domains. The article allows the editors of the special issue to delve into some of the characteristic themes of the cybersecurity debate, and in particular those of governance dynamics, awareness development, and the toolbox characteristic of this field. Some proposals for future research are outlined at the end of the contribution.
