Did you know that there is a worldwide organization or agency working across relevant sectors towards the betterment of information and communication technologies?
The three sectors that it works with are:
- Development Sector
- Standardization Sector
- Radiocommunication Sector
The organization is the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) and what they have to say is something that we should all be aware about.
Our particular area of study at this point is the Standards or the Standardization Sector with their publication of the Standardization X.1205 approved last 2008-04-18 and currently in force or in effect - https://www.itu.int/rec/T-REC-X.1205-200804-I
Please follow the link above and download the official Overview of Cybersecurity.
Let us be clear about something today because people may be confused with the statement used throughout the document and may lead to believe otherwise. The documents official released by organization such as the ITU, including the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) often use the word Recommendation but it does not mean that it really is just a recommendation. In an approved and in-force document, it is the approved and established Standard.
Be Engaged
If you have any concerns of the accuracy of the material, you should direct that concern to ITU as they are very much open to listen to concern.
Like always, after you have thoroughly understood the study item above, and would like to have further discussion about. Do sound off at the comment section below.
