Cybersecurity and Extraterritorial Obligations of States

Cybersecurity and Extraterritorial Obligations of States

In their article in the "Routledge Handbook on Extraterritorial Human Rights Obligations", Prof. Dr. Matthias C. Kettemann and Anna Sophia Tiedeke argue that the protection of cybersecurity is in the interest of all states and conclude that our understanding of extraterritorial obligations is changing in light of the (relative) irrelevance of borders.
 


Abstract
Ensuring cybersecurity is a common interest-based obligation for states. This applies independently of borders, especially as failing to ensure cybersecurity in one state means endangering cybersecurity in all states. Human rights-related extraterritorial obligations of states oblige states to ensure an adequate level of cybersecurity and are important normative vectors for an increasingly robust protection of cybersecurity in international law.
