Cybersecurity Policies - European Commission

Abstract: 

The European Commission website provides information on how Europe has established various fronts to promote cyber resilience and how they have to safeguard their communication and data and keep online society and economy secure. This page discusses the key political initiatives and legislation, such as the establishment of ENISA (European Union Agency for Cybersecurity) or the Cyber Resilience Act, to enhance cybersecurity across the EU. One of the highlights of this website is that it sheds light on the history of public-private partnerships in Europe. For example, it introduces the Horizon 2020 contractual public-private partnership (cPPP) on cybersecurity that was established in 2016 between the European Commission and the European Cyber Security Organisation (ECSO), an association consisting of members from cyber industry, academia, public administrations and more. This shows the high investment in creating cyber hygiene and culture across the private sector and the enthusiasm to form a stronger public-private partnership. Overall, this website serves as a comprehensive resource on the EU’s cybersecurity policies and partnerships that helps Europe to be a more cyber-resilient place.
