Space based technologies play an increasingly critical role in the maintenance and development of national and international infrastructures.

Noting also that effective critical infrastructure protection includes, inter alia, identifying threats to and reducing the vulnerability of critical information infrastructures, minimizing damage and recovery time in the event of damage or attack, and identifying the cause of damage or the source of attack,

Canadian provinces and territories are focusing on protecting their own critical infrastructures, including the cybersystems and networks on which they depend.

In most developing countries, the availability of resources to finance investments in infrastructures has been among the critical factors influencing prospects and capacities for harnessing potentials.

6. Stresses the necessity for enhanced efforts to close the digital divide, to achieve universal access to information and communication technologies and to protect critical information infrastructures by facilitating the transfer of information technology and capacity building, in particular to developing countries, especially the least developed countries, so that all States may benefit fully from information and communication technologies for their socio economic development.

5. Encourages Member States and relevant regional and international organizations that have developed strategies to deal with cybersecurity and the protection of critical information infrastructures to share their best practices and measures that could assist other Member States in their efforts to facilitate the achievement of cybersecurity

3. Examine infrastructures and identify interdependencies among them, thereby enhancing the protection of such infrastructures.

Recognizing further the importance of international cooperation for achieving cybersecurity and the protection of critical information infrastructures through the support of national efforts aimed at the enhancement of human capacity, increased learning and employment opportunities, improved public services and better quality of life by taking advantage of advanced, reliable and secure information and communication technologies and networks and by promoting universal access,
