China–U.S. cyber-crisis management

In the past decade, cyber security issues have led to multiple conflicts between China and the United States, resulting in significant risks and threats to the cooperation of the two countries in cyberspace. Despite early successes and failures, cyber-crisis management is still in its infancy. Challenges, such as the misreading of cyberspace strategic intentions and the ideologization of technology competition, are very real. In the future, the two sides need to work together to seek consensus on the basic principles of crisis management, emphasize the important role of academic exchanges, and take confidence-building measures to lay the foundation for cooperation in cyber-crisis management.
