These are already areas where multistakeholder organizations bring together
industry, independent experts (civil society), some civil society volunteer
groups in this space, and some selected government people .. and these are
already active for years. Rather than reinvent the wheel, invite them over
and then look at how CS can engage with them at their venues.

Especially cybersecurity - where there is the added concern that the
vetting model fo some of the most effective groups and the sensitive nature
of the content discussed mean that cooperation isn't very easy. Some
organizations such as M3AAWG (www.maawg.org) do bridge the gap to a large
extent, in outreach to a larger audience including ISOC, the RIRs etc.
