The Cybersecurity Blueprint – Draft Council Recommendation outlines the European Union’s proposed framework for a coordinated response to large-scale cyber incidents and crises affecting critical infrastructure and public services. Building on lessons from recent cyberattacks and geopolitical instability, the document strengthens the role of the EU’s Cyber Crisis Liaison Organisation Network (CyCLONe) and enhances cooperation between national cybersecurity authorities, law enforcement, and relevant EU bodies. The blueprint promotes preparedness, real-time information exchange, and joint situational awareness across sectors and borders. While still in draft form, the recommendation signals a shift toward more integrated cybersecurity governance and strategic resilience at the regional level, setting the foundation for future operational and legal coordination mechanisms within the EU.
