Trilateral Cyber Security Commission

The Trilateral Cyber Security Commission was convened and is supported by the Sasakawa Peace Foundation USA. Sasakawa USA is dedicated to strengthening U.S.-Japan relations through education, programs, and research. Improved cyber security is an imperative for both countries, as well as for their partners in Europe. The Commission has brought together prominent officials and leaders from government, business, and universities to make recommendations for coordinated policies and actions that will benefit the United States, Japan, and like-minded European countries.

In December 2019, the Trilateral Cyber Security Commission published its first report: National Security Strategy for 5G: Findings & Recommendations on Meeting the 5G Challenge.

On February 25, 2020, the U.S. Commissioners presented their report at the prestigious RSA Conference in San Francisco. A link to the event page is here.

Following the conference, we published a commentary on March 10th: Immediate Change to Our 5G Strategy is Needed

Our latest commentary from March 24th was published here: Follow Japan’s Lead on IoT Security
