Not long ago Joe Biden met Vlad Putin to discuss bilateral relations and make some kind of a deal over cybersecurity as many companies around the world suffered cyberattacks and became targets of malware and ransomware. There was little info on the decisions made during and after that summit. However, the two leaders agreed to cooperate to prevent cybercrime and find and punish the criminals.
Nevertheless, the U.S. made little effort to take effective steps towards the common goals as Russia called upon active actions against cybercriminals. The American IT companies and government-employed specialists are willing to cooperate, but the White House can't still decide what to do. In the meantime, world-known Kaspersky Lab IT company says Russia is #1 world country on the number of incoming cyberattacks. Most of them come from the United States under cover of fake IP-addresses.
It's obvious that IT specialists of the two countries are interested in cooperation and will make world wide web more secure and sustainable. But no political will is seen from the United States. All this looks like the U.S. is not going to cooperate with Russia over cybersecurity. May be because it doesn't meet with Washington's interests?
