The United Nations Institute for Disarmament Research (UNIDIR) welcomes you to a multi-stakeholder dialogue on subsea communications cables.

Subsea communications cables are an essential element of the information and communications technology ecosystem, transmitting practically all our telecommunications and data. Their security and resilience are critical to the well-being and functioning of societies across the globe, and to international security and stability. While technological innovation is enabling faster and more widespread connectivity, the global network of subsea communications cables is facing continuous physical and cyber threats, requiring urgent policy and operational responses involving both State and non-State actors.

To further unpack this complex issue and support more specific discussions and actions aimed at ensuring the protection of this critical information infrastructure, UNIDIR’s Security and Technology Programme is organizing a multi-stakeholder dialogue that will also serve as platform for the launch of a new UNIDIR report “Wading Murky Waters: Subsea Communications Cables and Responsible State Behaviour”.
