With North Korea’s increasing cyber and nuclear capabilities, it is now important for South Korea and
its allies to prepare for new types of security crises, as opposed to the ‘conventional’ security crisis for which they have traditionally been prepared. This session will bring together security experts from South Korea and its allies to discuss national plans and international cooperation in cyber and/or nuclear attacks. It also brings together practitioners and analysts. From the Korean side, for instance, practitioners of ‘conventional’ security crisis management (former members of the Presidential Office who were in charge of security crisis management) will be joined by experts on ‘emerging’ security risks, particularly cyber and nuclear attacks. Through the exchange of their experience and knowledge, it is hoped that practitioners and analysts from Korea and its allies will produce guidelines for managing unprecedented security crises.
