Officials from the United States and Singapore committed to taking a more active stance to counter cybersecurity threats and hold malicious cyber actors accountable globally. The discussion focused on countering malicious cyber actors through information sharing, joint law enforcement operations, public attribution, and other tools of national power, as well as critical infrastructure resilience amid Super Intelligence innovation. Both sides discussed joint methods to shape behavior by imposing costs on malicious cyber actors who target critical infrastructure and civilians.
