The Senate Select Committee on Intelligence released the third volume of the Committee’s investigation into Russian election interference. In part, the committee recommended that the US exercise its leadership in creating international cyber norms. 4th District Congressman Jim Himes welcomed the report, saying he has for years promoted the development and implementation of a formalized international agreement on acceptable uses of cyber capabilities.  Himes is again reaching out to the State Department, sending a letter to Secretary of State Mike Pompeo encouraging a refocusing on this issue. Himes has previously pushed for the introduction of international accords that would set the rules and standards for cyber conflict, referring to them as the E-Neva Accords in reference to the Geneva Accords of the 20th Century.  The United Nations has done some work to develop guidelines in this area, but there is currently no broad effort to expand these guidelines into official international agreements.
