As organizations have become more dependent on the networks and business transactions, external data sharing and simple day-to-day communications, the need drives the networks to be more transparent and accessible but protected from illegal access and abuse. It is also fraught with threats from organized criminals of the Cyber underworld running an underground Cyber Economy. There is thus a need for governing this virtual world to support global social, political, economic collaboration and exchange while managing associated risks. The objective is to provide trustworthy and efficient computing in Cyber space, calling for an effective Governance of cyberspace. This is a paradigm shift from eSecurity to eAssurance in cyberspace. This presentation outlines the ramifications of governing such a cyberspace that affects individual human life, social life, global business and governments on such a massive scale in a border-less world, and describes the different facets of Cyber Governance and how do we design and implement efficient, effective and trustworthy Cyber Governance systems. Ultimately Cyber Governance must lead to cyber-assurance, that Governance leads to IT value delivery and IT risk management, with due consideration of the global, national and corporate perspectives of Cyber Governance and Cyber Assurance. A multilayer model Cyber/Business Assurance will also be outlined, comprising managerial, operational, technical, financial, legal and revenue assurance along with the research challenges.
