Abstract Cyber security has become an important issue in human development. Over the past decade， Internet in East Asia has experienced an exponential growth， which is however accompanied by increasing cyber-risk. This paper applies the securitization theory to the analysis of cyber security in East Asia and different models of cyber-securitization of regional powers. It argues that regional countries have evident differences in constructing cyber security images. The discrepancy in the construction process has lowered the effectiveness of collective securitization and inhibited the development of regional cooperation on cyber-security.
