The Internet should be a space of trust. Otherwise, the force of the Internet could turn out to be venomous rather than beneficial. In a nutshell, what is being menaced is the trust in transactions, a linchpin for the continued development of the Internet economy.

In order to promote confidence in the Internet, all individuals and nations basically have to equip themselves with a systematic response system. More than anything else, cooperation between countries is urgently required.
