The rapid fire round of the assembly

During the general assembly of the third session of the DISEC organ ,the delegates of France, China and India were involved an interesting segment. The delegate of India mentioned that the frequency of cyber attacks is one every twelve minutes and how even though India was the first country to get a cyber code it is one of most targeted countries in the field of cyber-space.

Right after this the delegate of China mentioned that India was one of the first to get a cyber code and this would help the country prosecute criminals. This prompted the delegate of France to question the ability of the cyber-code if India's frequency if cyber-attacks is one every twelve minutes. She asked, “How is the cyber-code going to help at an international level if in India the rate of Cyber-attacks is one every twelve minutes". This puzzled the delegate of China who was temporarily shocked.

The delegate recovered immediately and put forward a point that answered the question precisely and justly. He said that the cyber-code would allow the country and the world to put these criminals behind bars and help other countries. He also described the need for a international court and laws to help in the cause. This was widely accepted by the other delegates.

This is the cause for many of the cyber-attacks in a number of countries and is the reason that the masterminds behind these attacks.

The many things that the cyber-code would include are the availability of quick reaction teams and heavily armed firewalls and teams of ethical hackers who will be ready to act on sudden notice. This could help make the field of cyber-space more peaceful and help countries that are currently economically lagging to counter cyber-terrorism.

The delegate of India said that India believes that the formation of a international body to curb cyber-terrorism will help drastically reduce the frequency of cyber-attacks and this coming from a country with cyber-crimes occurring every twelve minutes was shocking.

During an interview we asked the delegate about the scenario and these were his answers.

When questioned about his thoughts at that point in time he said, “I knew that the question was coming and also knew what to say”

His answer to the next question about his feelings at the point was, “I was not intimidated but was actually happy that I was asked about it”.

The answer to the last question about the question of the delegate of France the delegate of China said, “ I was prepared for the question and was ready to give an answer”.

The delegate of Mexico commented on the above interview saying, “ The delegate of China is an exceptional speaker and can put across his point very effectively”

The delegates of South Africa and Tajikistan said the following respectively: "the delegate of China efficiently portrays his country's feelings on any point of information he faces” and “The delegate of China got his point to all the other delegates of the DISEC committee and expressed the conflicts in his country in cyber-terrorism effectively. The other delegates of Switzerland said, “The delegate of China knows how to put his point across”.
