Abstract
This paper briefly characterizes the benefits of collaboration, focusing on the innovations and efficiencies that standardization entails. EU-U.S. standization institutions and collaborative standardization initiative are identified; the logic of expanding EU-U.S. security standardization is developed and the process of the ensuing economic value creation is described. Thoughts on how security standards collaboration will work are provided and potentially fruitful areas cooperation are suggested.
