State Dept. to Create Bureau of Cyberspace and Digital Policy
Secretary of State Antony Blinken has announced plans – subject to approval by Congress – to create a Bureau of Cyberspace and Digital Policy, with a new special envoy for critical and emerging technology. “This structure will provide us with greater leadership and accountability to drive the diplomatic agenda within the interagency and abroad,” Blinken explained. A State Department spokesperson told reporters the envoy will focus on “three key areas: international cyberspace security, international digital policy, and digital freedom.”
