PRESS RELEASE : UK and France consult on commercial cyber intrusion capabilities [August 2024]
The press release issued by the Foreign Office on 14 August 2024.
Take part in the consultation from the UK and France on the threat presented by proliferation and irresponsible use of commercial cyber intrusion capabilities.
This consultation is taking place under the Pall Mall Process, an international and multi-stakeholder dialogue to develop joint solutions to address this shared threat.
Led by the governments of the UK and France, a coalition of states, businesses and civil society came together in February 2024 to discuss the issue. They published the ‘Pall Mall Declaration’, also available in French: Processus de Pall Mall.
Through this consultation, we invite stakeholders to share views on good practice relating to commercial cyber intrusion capabilities (CCICs) across 3 stakeholder groups:
- states: as regulators and potential customers of the market for CCICs
- industry organisations: involved in and around the market for CCICs, alongside their wider value chain
- civil society, experts, and threats researchers : with relevant expertise on the threat presented by the market for CCICs, and responses to it
The consultation will close on 11 October 2024.
If you would like to take part, you can register to participate in the consultation by providing your contact details details by 11 October 2024. We will then send you a link to the consultation.
Note that:
- we may share your details with our partners in the French government, as the Pall Mall Process is a joint initiative
- responding to the consultation questionnaire does not represent a formal commitment to the Pall Mall Process, nor membership of the initiative
