Increase in cybersecurity after the case of Edward Snowden

Open internet and concern for insecurity

The global Internet network is actually a huge data network that consists of millions of computers that in practice are interconnected as nodes of a volleyball network and any node or device connected to the Internet can connect and communicate with other nodes throughof different routes.

In this type of network, there is always the possibility of security problems and interceptions of individuals and organizations, since hundreds of other nodes can be visible before any information reaches their destination.

Node node routing systems are optimized with different algorithms to make the shortest route ever used, but it is also possible that, for different reasons, the information is moved further than what was thought.

It is not only the philosophies exposed by the West who really worry, but the way in which these philosophies became the architecture of the network, which is designed to ensure that no one can prevent someone from sending something to anyone. These problems that arise from this not only affect authoritarian regimes.

Due to this reason, any government could be concerned with the dissemination of malicious information, such as viruses that reach military facilities or water and energy networks or false news that influence the electorate, and that is why some countries are unhappyWith the western coalition that has traditionally had dominance over Internet governance.

After Edward Snowden’s intelligence revelation in the US.UU., Many countries have felt threatened by the collection of intelligence in the North American country, so they have sought several ways to prevent them from being in.

Snowden, who currently lives refugee in Russia, declassified in June 2013, a large number of ultrasecretos documents related to several American intelligence programs, such as the government’s listening program, among other cases of mass espionage that have been carried outin the world.

One of the measures adopted by several countries in this regard is the launch of its own cyber network, a plan with which in addition to blocking access from countries such as the US.UU. To the information of its users, they can provide high -speed Internet access services, reduce network service costs and also have wider band.

The "national internet" or "internal internet" is a platform designed and implemented together with the global network to improve internal communications and increase control and reduce communication costs within countries in such a way that applications for internal access andInformation stored in internal data centers in no way is engaged or controlled through other countries and it is possible to create private and safe networks of Intranet.After the emergence of the Islamic Republic of Iran, the enemies of this revolution tried to attack it in several ways. The Internet network is one of the ways in which the American-Israelí front has triedto Internet.

For example, since its foundation in January 2012, Hispantv has been again and again – as his older brother Press TV, founded in July 2007 – victim of the censorship of the American company Google.

In the case of Hispantv, Google blocked in August 2018 its access to YouTube and Google Plus. In November 2017, he closed his live broadcast and in May 2015 he suspended his live broadcast for several months. The channel has also been blocked by networks like Facebook and taken from the air by satellite suppliers such as Hispasat.

In this sense, years ago the Persian country decided to establish its own cyber space with the name of "the National Internet Network".The list of countries that are attracted to more authoritarian Internet governance seems to be growing. The researchers discovered that, in the last four years, the "digital decision -making" governments such as Singapore, Brazil, Ukraine and India, among others, have been directed towards a more sovereign and closed approach to information.

Among the countries that use their own cyberspace to avoid interference and espionage of the West, we can name Russia and China that were the first nations to understand the potential impact that an open information ecosystem would have on humans and in decision -making, especially at the political level and began to speak publicly about the "sovereign internet" around 2011 or 2012.

China, who suspected the new Western technology from the beginning, is the only country in the world that, so far, with the largest number of national search engines, national computer games, national mail servers and, most importantly, the most importantNational Operating Systems, has shown the greatest international resistance to US electronic invasion.UU.

Russia also announced on Monday that it successfully tested its sovereign internet, called as Runet, and announced that it will put this plan into practice from next month with the aim of providing cyber security to its users. The posture of these two countries is that citizens are such an important part of the infrastructure as electric power plants and, therefore, need to be “protected” from the malicious information that affects them. Likewise, two of the largest “digital decision -making” countries, Brazil and India, have long sought a way to deal with the global Internet that is not based on the “open values” of the West or in the closed national intranets and haveincurred in a huge cost to create your national internet.

Another country that has its own cyber space is North Korea, which, for many years, for its tensions with the United States in the field of foreign policy, has been the target of cyber attacks and espionages of US hackers and finallyHe decided to establish the internal network appointed as "Kwangmyong" to avoid the interference of foreigners and also provide their internal communicative needs.

Similarly, after Snowden’s case, Germany suggested European countries to launch their own European information network in order to avoid espionage and increase security so that European information, including email, does not pass through the routeAmerican. The United Kingdom, Australia, Kuwait, are also known as countries that use their own Internet network. The implementation of the National Internet Plan is not a project contrary to world practice, but is precisely the way the main countries of the world resort to to protect their interests.
