Abstract : Multinational Experiment 7 (MNE 7) is a two-year multinational and interagency Concept Development and Experimentation (CDE threat assessment and vulnerability analysis; situational awareness and information sharing; and inter-domain concepts and planning constructs), and across the global commons. As major project outputs, Decision Makers will be provided with tools capable to perform sufficient understanding and situational awareness of their own networks and relevant parts of wider cyberspace, in order to ensure access to and freedom of action within the cyber common. In such a context, the aim of MNE7 objective 3.3 is to improve partners and coalition members understanding of the current legal framework applicable to the cyber common, in order to handle cyber incidents, while providing Decision Makers with the appropriate tools that support decision options for response. At this first step, objective 3.3 produced an overarching Concept Framework that outlines the main international law rules applicable to the cyber common. The purpose of the Concept Framework is to deliver a tool to participating nations that will enable them to achieve an improved understanding of the current legal frameworks applicable to the cyber common, in order to assess, handle and make the appropriate response to emerging cyber incidents in accordance with international law.
