European Cybersecurity – Challenges. Selected Examples

Jolanta Cichosz

Abstract


The article analyzes the state of European cybersecurity on selected examples. In the face of the increasing cybersecurity challenges in the European Union (legislative, institutional, research, industry), it is necessary to verify the models that ensure cybersecurity. In addition, this verification should concern the coherence of the digital single market strategy, the implementation of large projects and the allocation of duties to the interested representatives. At the same time, the changes should include the coherence of legal provisions and definitions relating to cyberthreats. Priority actions in the field of cybersecurity should include: the increasing of the required capabilities and readiness to respond to cyberthreats, the strengthening cooperation and coordination between Member States of the European Union as well as between the institutions, the agencies, the authorities and the industry.
