Cybersecurity in the EU Common Security and Defence Policy (CSDP): Challenges and risks for the EU

Back to News

ENISA and the Science and Technology Options Assessment (STOA) panel of the European Parliament joined forces to deliver a study on the Cybersecurity in the EU Common Security and Defence Policy.

The study identifies challenges and risks for the EU regarding cyber capacity building in the EU Common Security and Defence Policy (CSDP) context.

Several experts from the public sector, the academia and military, including NATO, contributed to this work in order to give a holistic perspective of cybersecurity requirements, concerns and good practices for military and civilian missions. The study builds on existing EU efforts recommending additional proposals that span across policy, culture, skills, law, capabilities and organizations.

The study is structured around three thematic areas: policies, capacity building, and the integration of cyber in the CSDP missions, with the last one being its main focus.
