美韩网络安全合作:动因、规划与限度

U.S.-South Korea Cybersecurity Cooperation:Motivations,Plans and Limits

[研究目的]2023年4月26日,美韩签署了《战略性网络安全合作框架》,将同盟关系拓展至网络空间。对美韩网络安全合作的最新动态进行跟踪分析,旨在分析其合作动因、规划与限度。[研究方法]梳理美韩两国在网络空间中的合作现状,通过文本分析和历史回顾的方式,进一步理清美韩网络安全合作的背后逻辑。[研究结论]美韩网络安全的动因是要形成环中国网络安全联盟闭环,应对所谓的朝鲜网络安全威胁,构建符合美韩偏好的网络愿景。两国计划建立新的网络安全合作机制,强化公私合作、推广负责任行为,深化在核心技术研发和网络安全演习方面的合作。然而,美韩网络战略优先级不同、机构协调与应对威胁方式相异以及韩日矛盾对美韩合作的反向影响,均会对美韩网络安全合作形成制约。
