IPTF also plans to draw on the Green 

Paper and earlier responses to past 

Requests for Public Comment; past 

respondents are invited to provide 

additional and updated viewpoints on 

IPTF efforts since those comments were 

provided. 

Implementing the Multistakeholder 

Process: Commenters also may wish to 

provide their views on how stakeholder 

discussions of the proposed issue(s) 

should be structured to ensure 

openness, transparency, and consensusbuilding. Analogies to other Internetrelated multistakeholder processes, 

whether they are concerned with policy 

or technical issues, could be especially 

valuable. 

4. Please comment on the best 

structure and mechanics for the 

process(es). If different security issues 

will require different process structures, 

please offer guidance on how to best 

design an appropriate process for the 

issue selected. 

5. How can the IPTF promote 

participation from a broad range of 

stakeholders, i.e., from industry, civil 

society, academia, and international 

partners? In particular, how can we 

promote engagement from small and 

medium-sized enterprises (SME) that 

play key roles in the digital ecosystem? 

How critical is location for meetings, 

and what factors should be considered 

in determining where to host meetings? 

6. What procedures and technologies 

can promote transparency of process, 

including promoting discussion 

between stakeholders and ensuring 

those outside the process can 

understand the decisions made? 

7. What types of consensus outcomes 

can promote real security benefits 

without further adding to a complianceoriented model of security? 

8. Would certain cybersecurity issues 

be better served by a single workshop or 

other event to raise awareness and 

promote independent action, rather than 

a longer multistakeholder, consensusbuilding process? 

9. How should evaluation of the 

processes be conducted to assess results 

and to ensure that recommendations 

and outcomes of the process remain 

actionable and current? 

Response to this Request for Public 

Comment is voluntary. Commenters are 

free to address any or all of the issues 

identified above, as well as provide 

information on other topics that they 

think are relevant to promoting 

voluntary coordinated action to address 

cybersecurity risks through an open, 

transparent, voluntary, consensus-based 

process. Please note that the 

Government will not pay for response 

preparation or for the use of any 

information contained in the response.
