In April we covered <a href=\"https:\/\/www.electronicverificationsystems.com\/blog\/cyber-security-in-congress-and-the-corporate-world\">Congress\u2019 cyber security initiatives<\/a>&nbsp;and recently Secretary of State John Kerry, addressed cyber security as an international issue during his trip to South Korea.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Secretary Kerry conveyed the importance of the Internet and how it contributes to a person\u2019s freedom. He emphasized the role America plays in promoting and maintaining cyber stability. In addition to international law that applies to the cyberspace, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.state.gov\/secretary\/remarks\/2015\/05\/242553.htm\">Secretary Kerry provided five guideline<\/a>s that all Internet using countries can observe.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>1. \u201cNo country should conduct or knowingly support online activity that intentionally damages or impedes the use of another country\u2019s critical infrastructure.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>2. \u201cNo country should seek either to prevent emergency teams from responding to a cyber security incident, or allow its own teams to cause harm.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>3. \u201cNo country should conduct or support cyber-enabled theft of intellectual property, trade secrets, or other confidential business information for commercial gain.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>4. \u201cEvery country should mitigate malicious cyber activity emanating from its soil, and they should do so in a transparent, accountable and cooperative way.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>5. \u201cEvery country should do what it can to help states that are victimized by a cyber attack.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It is important for businesses to stay aware of international guidelines, laws and industry trends. Digital is continuing to dominate and e-commerce is growing; therefore, companies can easily conduct business anywhere in the world. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.electronicverificationsystems.com\/international-identity-verification\">EVS offers International Consumer Identity Verification<\/a>&nbsp;to assist businesses with knowing who their customers are and to protect against identity fraud.
