Skupna izjava Slovenije in Zdruzenih drzav Amerike o varnosti 5G omrezi Ker bodo v prihodnje varna brezvitna komunikacijska omre¥ja pete generacije (5G) kljuéna za zagotavljanje blaginje in nacionalne vamosti, Slovenija in Zdruzene dréave Amerike izpostavijata Zeljo po krepitvi svojega sodelovanja na podrotju 5G. Tehnologija 5G bo omogoéila Sirok nabor novih mo2nosti, tudi za omogo%anje kljuénih javnih storitev, ki bodo v korist nasih dravljanov in gospodarstev. $ povetanim obsegom podatkov v omrezjih 5G se bodo dodatno okrepile povezave med svetovnimi gospodarstvi, tudi med Slovenijo in ‘Zaruzenimi dréavami Amerike, poleg tega bo lazje Cezmejno poslovanje na podrogju storitev in trgovine.

Zato Slovenija in Zdruzene drZave Amerike podpirata prizadevanja, kot so sklepi Sveta Evropske unije o »Pomenu omrezij 5G za evropsko gospodarstvo in dejstvu, da je treba zmanjSati varnostna tveganja, povezana z njimia, sporotilo Evropske komisije o »Varni uvedbi tehnologije 5G v EU — izvajanje nabora orodij EU« in izjava predsedujoéega Konferenci 0 vamnosti 5G v Pragi oz, t.i. »praski predlogi«, saj gre za pomembne korake v oblikovanju skupnega pristopa k zagotavijanju vamnosti omrezja 5G. Praski predlogi izpostavljajo potrebo po tem, da se omrezja 5G razvija, vzpostavlja in tr2i na podlagi proste in po8tene konkurence ter ob spostovanju naéel preglednosti in viadavine prava. Slovenija in Zdruzene dréave Amerike opozarjata tudi na londonsko deklaracijo, v kateri so se Organizacija severnoatlantske pogodbe in zavezniske dréave, v skladu s svojimi pristojnostmi, zavezale k zagotavljanju. varnosti komunikacij, tudi omre2ij 5G. Slovenija in Zdruzene dréave Amerike poudarjata, da je pomembno k sodelovanju na trgih SG pritegniti zanesljive in zaupanja vredne dobavitelje omrezne strojne in programske opreme, ob upostevanju ocene njihovega profila tveganja, ter spodbujati okvirje za uéinkovito za8tito omreZij 5G pred nepooblaséenim dostopom in poseganjem. Slovenija in Zdruzene driave ‘Ametike tudi menita, da bi morali dobavitelji na podrogju tehnologije 5G zagotavljati izdelke in storitve, ki omogoéajo inovativnost in spodbujajo uéinkovitost. Po mnenju Slovenije in Zadrwienih dréave Amerike si yse dréave delijo odgovornost, da uberejo previden in uravnotezen pristop k zagotavijanju varnosti omrezij ter ustrezno ocenijo ponudnike komponent tehnologije 5G in programske opreme. Poleg tega sta Slovenija in Zdru%ene drZave Amerike prepritani, da je treba za vzpostavitev dinamignega in odpornega SG ekosistema poskrbeti za temeljito oceno dobaviteljev in dobavnih verig ob doslednem spostovanju navel viadavine prava, upoitevanju varnostnega okolja, etinih praks ter skladnosti dobaviteljev z vamnostnimi standardi in najboljsimi praksami, Ocenjevanje bi moralo upoStevati Se zlasti naslednje vidike:* ali so lahko dobavitelji omredne strojne in programske opreme predmet nadzora tujih vlad brez neodvisne sodine presoje; © ali dobavitelji omreZne strojne in programske opreme lahko zagotovijo preglednost lastni8tva, partnerstey in struktur upravljanja podjetij in so predmet pravnih predpisov, ki zahtevajo pregledne prakse upravljanja; © ali so dobavitelji omreZne strojne in programske opreme zavezani k inovativnosti in spostovanju pravic intelektualne lastnine; ter ali lahko dobavitelji omredne strojne in programske opreme izpritajo etiéno poslovno ravnanje. Slovenija in Zdruzene dréave Amerike sta preprigani, da bi enako strogo ocenjevanje morali ‘uporabiti tudi pri neposrednih tujih naloZah v kritiéno komunikacijsko infrastrukturo, fiziéno ali virtualno, in sicer s posebnim mehanizmom preverjanja. Slovenija in Zdruzene dréave Amerike Se ugotavijata, da je treba okrepiti ozaveséenost o pomenu vamnosti 5G omresij, za kar se nameravata zavzemati v okviru Organizacije severnoatlantske pogodbe in Evropske unije.

Increased amounts of data on 5G networks will farther interconnect the economies of the world, including Slovenia and the United States, and facilitate cross-border services and commerce. Protecting communications networks from disruption or manipulation, and ensuring the privacy and individual liberties of the citizens of Slovenia and the United States are vital to ensuring that our people are able to take advantage of the tremendous economic opportunities 5G will enable. Therefore, Slovenia and the United States welcome efforts such as the Council of the European Union “Conclusions on the Significance of 5G to the European Economy and the Need to Mitigate Security Risks Linked to 5G”, Communication from the European ‘Commission on “Secure 5G Deployment in the EU — Implementing the EU Toolbox,” and the Chair's statement from the Prague SG Security Conference — the “Prague Proposals” — as important steps toward developing a common approach to 5G network security. The Prague Proposals emphasize the need to develop, deploy, and commercialize 5G networks based on the foundation of free and fair competition, transparency, and the rule of law. Slovenia and the United States also recall the London Declaration, in which the North Atlantic Treaty Organization and Allies, within their respective authority, committed to ensuring the security of their communications, including 5G. Slovenia and the United States emphasize the importance of encouraging the participation of reliable and trustworthy network hardware and software suppliers in 5G markets, taking into account risk profile assessments, and promoting frameworks that effectively protect SG networks from unauthorized access and interference. Slovenia and the United States further recognize that 5G suppliers should provide products and services that enable innovation and promote efficiency. Slovenia and the United States note that all countries share a responsibility to undertake a careful and balanced approach to network security and the evaluation of 5G components and software providers. To promote a vibrant and robust 5G ecosystem, Slovenia and the United States believe that a rigorous evaluation of suppliers and supply chains should take into account the rule of law; the security environment; ethical supplier practices; and a supplier's compliance with security standards and best practices. Specifically, evaluations should include especially the following elements:© Whether the network hardware and software suppliers are subject, without independent judicial review, to control by a foreign government; © Whether the network hardware and software suppliers have transparent ownership, partnerships, and corporate governance structures and are subject to a legal regime that enforces transparent corporate practices; © Whether the network hardware and software suppliers are committed to innovation and respect for intellectual property rights; and © Whether the network hardware and software suppliers have a record of ethical corporate behavior. Slovenia and the United States also believe that the same kind of rigorous evaluation should be applied to foreign direct investments in critical communication infrastructure, be it physical or virtual, through a dedicated screening mechanism, Further, Slovenia and the United States recognize the need to raise awareness of the importance of 5G security and intend to promote it within the North Atlantic Treaty Organization and the European Union, Signed in duplicate in Ljubljana on 13 August 2020 in the Slovenian and English languages, both texts being equally valid.
