Framing --- Shabanah, good point - this is exactly the challenge in international relations: the framing of the term.

As we see below, the US and allies focus on security of networks, information being part of that; Russia looks at a much broader perspective of information, where networks are only within it. China is increasingly pushing for data security framing. Civil society demands for people-centric (or human-centric) approach. Tech community looks at technology and processes.

While it seems we are all talking about the same thing, it maters greatly what each of the players see should fit under a possible international agreement, or a national policy - or, equally important, what should not be there.
