<P style="LINE-HEIGHT: 16.8pt; MARGIN: 0in 0in 10pt; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto" class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial','sans-serif'; COLOR: black; FONT-SIZE: 9.5pt; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'">Experts think that the warning from Secretary General of UN communications and technology agency International Telecommunications Union, Mr Hamadoun Toure at World Economic Forum can prevent Cyber War between different nations. He proposed a treaty in which countries would engage not to make the first cyber strike against another nation. Google claims regarding attacks from China has become a major issue and it was a major talking point in Davos. Hamadoun Toure said that the risk of a cyber conflict between two nations grows every year. <o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

But who will define that who is right and who is wrong? Today anyone can obtain any kind of domain name and can host it anywhere that may be accessible from any other corner of the world. Similarly Internet is accessible to every one. China has decline the google claim that they are not involved in such kind of attack on Google. Well, but China has to take care about the domain registrations with .cn ccTLD and all Data Centers of the country. <o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

Second step is to re-evaluate the existing domain names & hosting and formulate a methodology to constantly monitoring and record the internet traffic to and from existing ccTLD domain names (hosted inland).</U> These actions will prevent misuse of ccTLD name space and protect the nations pulling into the cyber war. If they found any misuse or moderate traffic from a domain, immediately the
information has to be passed to the UN communications and technology agency. <o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

The trust between nations is very much necessary for neutrality and openness of the Internet and especially for the future Layers of new Localized Global Layer of the Linguistic Internet. <o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
