Blinken: Digital Solidarity Is 'North Star' for US Policy

U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken announced the US International Cyberspace and Digital Policy Strategy at RSA, calling for global cyber norms, partnerships with like-minded nations and companies, and trained digital officers in every embassy by end of 2024; he warned about authoritarian surveillance and the misuse of AI/ML to undermine democracy, emphasized a whole-of-stack approach across biotech, clean energy, AI, and quantum computing (highlighting NIST’s post-quantum cryptography selections), and cited coordinated efforts to strengthen Ukraine’s cyber defenses as an example of digital solidarity.
