Voicing concern over the malicious use of new Information and Communications Technologies (ICTs), Joint Secretary (EG & IT) (Cyber Diplomacy) in the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) Upender Singh Rawat said on September 10, that nations should not knowingly allow their territory to be used for committing "internationally wrongful" acts like cyber terrorism through it, reports Daily Pioneer. "It is of concern that cases of malicious use of new ICTs to the detriment of states are increasing and there is a need to express strong condemnation and rejection of these violations," Rawat said. He added that with the evolving threat landscape and emergence of new ICTs, there is a need for additional norms including those to avoid tampering of supply chain, condemn offensive cyber operations by malicious actors and take down ICT infrastructure being used for botnets.
